After getting some tips on what to look for, I was able to find names for most nebulae in the image. Image is part of the Chamaeleon complex. The Chamaeleon III dark cloud is visible in the image and part of the Chamaeleon II dark cloud is visible at the top of the image. I have included an annotated version that lists nebulae names.
Nice image. I started this a day or so back, but got sidetracked trying to find a reference. I was amazed how many 'dark nebula complexes' there are, but can't find this one!
Thanks! The only catalogued object in the image I have found so far is a small galaxy IC 3104. I do not see the dark nebula in LDN or Barnard catalogs.
