Integrated flux nebula around Polaris
Canon 100mm macro lens, f2.8; 7hr integration
The Polaris Nebula is a very faint section of nebulosity in the apparent direction of Polaris, the North Star. The nebula is an example of an Integrated Flux Nebula. These type of nebulae lie in the outer regions of our galaxy and consist of fine dust particles illuminated by reflecting light from the entire Milky Way Galaxy. These clouds are very subtle and present quite challenging targets to photograph.
