Slowly the winter is coming closer to the northern hemisphere and we're one month away from the holidays. This little cabin located on the island Frösön close to the city of Östersund, Sweden, was well suited for shooting the crescent moon this evening.

This is a very nice image! The narrowband data has made a hidden secret more apparent, a small planetary nebula catalogued as WeBo 1. See the attached crop for a closer view!

again thanks starsurfer, I looked at that earlier and could not find any reference to WeBo 1
cheers, happy thanksgiving

This Hubble Palette image combines all data captured from my backyard observatory in sunny Fremont, Michigan USA, September-October 2014 using QHY11/TAK E-180 and data collected in 2012 using QHY9/TMB92SS
Bottom left is part of lesser known emission Nebula SH2-202
I added data from the RGB version for a more natural looking star color.

I like this image a lot! Also a part of the superbubble N70 is visible near the left edge.

I have seen WeBo 1 in quite a few widefields of the Heart Nebula but I assume most people don't notice it. Adam Block has an interesting story in one of his previous images.

Very thin crescent moon

In 2012 february 22, after newmoon, the moon setting very close to the sun, but enough far to observe it.
Im was going to my village little hill, to take photos of this rare setting. I was having a very large luck, bequase the 3. photo is showing the tiny 0.7% phase moon... The "lifetime" was 18,5, hour after new moon. Thank you weather, for the great sky!

You can see the tiny crescent moon this image. The moon distance to the horizon is only 1,5° (local time 18:05). It was invisible to the naked eye.
It was my first, and the youngest moon observation ever. Sometimes the luck is important. This image was created a Canon EOS1000D + Canon 70-300EF

Im showing this image after the sundays 1.5% crescent moon.

My final image which completes this interesting chapter within this region of Cassiopeia is a 6776x4170 pixel 4 panel Mosaic of The Heart & Soul Nebulae also including, Emission Nebula SH2-202 bottom left, Planetary Nebula HDW 2 also known as Sh2-200 near top left hand corner, beneath that is another Planetary Nebula IC289, smaller objects such as WeBo 1 cannot be seen in this image but I did a crop you can find here https://www.flickr.com/photos/terryhancock/15886471491/

My RGB data was used to give what I think gives a more pleasing and natural star color.
Total Integration time 56.5 Hours

I've loved following the progress of your project! Although you have mentioned there is the planetary nebula IC 289, it appears as a tiny star even in the largest image!! A closeup with a large telescope would also show a halo around it.

From top to bottom: M38, M36 and M37 were photographed in the constellation Auriga. This stack of 22 twenty second exposures (Canon T2i, ISO 800, f/3.2, 100 mm lens) is framed by the bright stars Alnath (Β Tau) the the right and θ Aur to the left. A thin layer of high clouds added a soft glow to the bright stars. Tracking was done with an iOptron Sky Tracker . The stacking was performed in Nebulosity.
