This widefield telescopic view reveals an area of varied nebulosity where a large dust cloud resides in the circumpolar contellation Camelopardalis, the Giraffe.
Dust reflects the blue light from nearby stars, giving rise to the faint reflection nebulae known as van den Bergh 14 and 15 (left and right).
The brighter red areas are emission nebulae of hydrogen gas; the radiation from nearby stars causes hydrogen to emit red H-alpha radiation. There is a vast area of H-alpha nebulosity, known as Sharpless 202, beyond the top of this image.
LRGB composite, 15 hr total exposure:
L - 26 x 10 min + 5 x 8 min = 5 hr
R - 24 x 10 min = 4 hr
G - 18 x 10 min = 3 hr
B - 17 x 10 min = 2.8 hr
This was a challenging image to process, with a tradeoff between enhacing details in the blue wisps of reflection nebula dust (which I favored) versus showing the full extent of those dust clouds, which has faded here.
