vdB133 in Cygnus

Hi Everyone,
I have been away for a short while, but I have enjoyed the images
posted lately.


Anyway, here is vdB133 in Cygnus. It has unexpectedly little color, at
least compared to most other reflection nebulae that I have imaged.

I hope you enjoy this interesting vdB object.

-Tom

Good stuff Tom. Interesting object. It looks greenish on the edges and pale blue in the center bit like the outskirt of M20 with that bright yellow star in the middle of it. Very nice intricate details came up. You're right, definitely not your average bright deep blue reflection neb. Very cool.
