Today I show you a new image of mine, the region around VdB5, better known as "the ghosts of Cassiopeia". It is both a reflection and an emission nebula, whose gas is directly warmed up by the star Gam Cas. Generally amateurs concentrate their efforts on the "ghosts" themselves, as they are very much eye-catching; I preferred instead to provide a wider vision of the nebular complex, keeping well visible the details over the little ghosts.
