..obscure in the sense of little known, actually this object is remarkably bright as dusty patch, which does not explain the very little amount of amateur images of this object. I discovered it by chance while I wandered onto the plates of digitized palomar survey, looking for attractive molecular clouds with a size suitable for my instrument.
Sharples 63 is part of high latitude molecular cloud MBM 159, which is located at a distance of about 220 pc and may form part of the Aquila rift. This bit of sky is just few degrees west of the Barnard's Galaxy.
Sharpless 63
This is a simple LRGB (there is no trace of Ha in the area) although quite deep in luminance. Certainly not a spectacular object but still quite interesting as evidence of how much dust is visible near the Milky Way About 13 hours of data with my usual setup.
Hope you will like it
