Bat Nebula LDN43

This is an image from one of my rigs at Swan Reach Imaging.
Data was taken with an OOUK AG12 with ZWO2600MM, with a total integration of 18.9 hours.

The object is a dark nebula which is illuminated by an emission nebula behind it. There is a lot of nebulosity in the surrounding field which is most likely IFN. This dust and gas is affecting the appearance of the background galaxies. The galaxy near the red giant star at the bottom of the image is some 400 million light year in distance.
