New Image: vdB149 and 150

Hi all,

Here is my most recent project. It is of a rarely imaged part of Cepheus that has two reflection nebulae cataloged as vdB149 and 150. Between them is a very faint "dusty" nebula. This image was an experiment using two different telescopes imaging the same object at the same time -- different cameras and filters however.

I didn't process out the star halos; I hope this doesn't offend the aesthetics of the image.

Comments and criticisms welcome.

Tom, I don't know how you do it, but these dark nebulae images are just spectacular! How do you decide what to shoot? I don't really have a source for these object.... other than you.
Well done, again,
Tyler

Hi Thomas,
That is a very nice photo, I like the colors!

Tom,
Very nicely done - as you say a premiere image. I hope you submit it to APOD. I guess they will snap it right up.

Simply put... AWESOME! 8)
Keep'em coming!
