The Dust Angel

a formation of molecular clouds located in Draco. The star nearest the center is HD90696. Ten years ago, photos of this object won APOD awards, and we bragged about our equipment and hundreds of hours of exposure. Today we brag about subscribing to TL and our photo-processing software. I will admit that this photo would benefit from 2 more of these observations.
