vdB141 / Sh2-136: The Ghost Nebula

Spooky shapes in a large swathe of the Cepheus Flare molecular cloud about 1120ly distant. Towards the bottom is Sh2-136: The Ghost Nebula, a reflection nebula and Bok globule star-forming region.

SkyWatcher Quattro 8", RisingCam IMX571 OSC, 7hr with Neodymium filter.

The Iris Nebula

NGC7023 aka the Iris Nebula is a reflection nebula 1300 light-years away in Cepheus, about 6 light-years across.

It's particularly impressive caught in the middle of LDN1170, the large swathes of brown dust swirling around.
