The Wizard Nebula

I photographed this handsome nebula about 2 weeks ago during a nearly full moon with the Optolong L-eXtreme filter.

 

NGC 7380 is a "must-shoot" object in Cepheus in my books. It's a fantastic target to try with a one-shot-color camera or DSLR, but a light pollution filter with narrow bandpasses will help keep those stars from taking over.
