Andy Dungan 6/21/26 Elephant Trunk (top center towards center) Nebula Sh2-131 in Cepheus 2400 ly away

This is a very large area of nebulosity. The Elephant Trunk extends from the top center towards the end of the trunk towards the center. Combining with the Ha layer pic increased the intensity of the reds. Having the amount of exposure I had also brought out a lot of the details. This is my first pic for the year in the area of Cygnus/Cepheus/Cassiopeia. There is so much in these areas to take pics of.
