This nebula is very dim and is just barely above sky glow at a clear dark site. South is up in this image. For close up image click here .
Several galaxies are visible.
In the upper right are pair of 15th magnitude spirals NGC 1799 and 1797. Also in the main image is NGC 1779, a 12th magnitude spiral, to the right of the hat. The original hi-rez image shows a number of galaxies that are identified in Simbad. This image would not have been possible without the assistance of J Janusz.
