Sharpless 291
On the border of Canis Majoris and Monoceros, a grouping of three small nebulae. At upper left is the emission nebula Sharpless 291 while at lower right is the reflection nebula vdB 87, The nebula near the middle is LBN 1022 and is associated with a variable star V* V900 Mon.
This image is an integration of data captured with Hydrogen alpha, red, green and blue filters; there is about 6 hours data for each filter. The camera was an ASI294MM and the scope was a William Optics Zenithstar 103. All processing was carried out in PixInsight.
