I took this photo last Friday, 10/21/2022. 25 two-minute exposures using an Astro-modified Canon 70D and a Skywatcher EvoStar 120ED. I didn’t know anything about this beautiful reflection nebula in Cepheus until seeing a photo here in the Astromart gallery. I really do think it looks like a portal to another dimension … or a big blue gemstone. I love the surrounding dark halo. Sorry, I don’t see much of an Iris!
