@andcarman: The Iris Nebula (also designated NGC 7023, Caldwell 4, or LBN 487) is a strikingly beautiful reflection nebula located approximately 1,300 light-years away from Earth in the northern constellation of Cepheus. Unlike emission nebulae that glow with their own light, a reflection nebula consists of cosmic dust clouds that scatter and reflect the light of nearby stars. #astrophotography #nebula #s50pro #deepspace
