“ Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,”

B150 "Seahorse"or "Cosmic Stroller" Dark Nebula
Reprocessed in 2022. I think its more like a Cosmic Stroller than a seahorse.
B150 6 hours of Luminance, 40mins each RGB. NP101is and FLI ML8300 camera. Taken by Lynn Hilborn, WhistleStop Obs, Grafton Ontario - October 2009
B150 is a dark nebula covering about 1 deg. of field-of-view. Although is it made of dark gases and dust, it is visible because it obscures light from the Milky Way stars behind it. Located 1,200 light-years from Earth, it stretches 20 light-years in length. North is at the top.
