Sh2-292 / Seagull Nebula
Nice, late-evening capture
Sh2-248 / IC 443 / Jellyfish Nebula
Challenging supernova remnant
NGC 1999 / Cosmic Keyhole
The keyhole is easy, but the background refelction nebula is very dim and hard to capture
NGC 2419 / Intergalactic Wanderer / C25
Fun, quick observation. A globular cluster located near no others.
Sh2-279 / Running Man Nebula / NGC 1977
Fascinating emission nebula, part of the Great Orion Nebula complex
M37 / Salt and Pepper Cluster
Sweet, quick open cluster.
NGC 2859 / UGC 5001
Challenging “ringed” galaxy in Leo Minor
NGC 2683 / UFO Galaxy
Beautiful, medium-sized galaxy in Lynx.
Arp 285 / NGC 2854 / NGC 2856
Two galaxies with “infall and attraction”. The extended upper arm of the galaxy on the left appears to be attracted to the upper galaxy and may be exchanging stars or dust.
