There is a rather pretty pair of reflection nebulae in Cassiopeia, IC 59 and IC 63 joined by fainter nebulosity and dust. I think they would make a fine 2-pane mosaic.

I can't see that it has been submitted by anyone else.

The bright star Navi (gamma-Cas) is just out of frame, and will probably cause some flare, but other astrophotographers have managed to tame it,

Any comments?

Looks a good fit Richard and I'm glad you've moved that pesky bright star as far away as possible. Just wondering what filters you want to use. 

Cheers,

It is actually a mixed pair of emissions/reflection nebulae.

IC63 is strong in Ha and IC59 a more balanced reflection nebula.

I am thinking HaRGB with Ha added into R and as a synthetic L.

The Ha as L could help to tame gamma-Cas.

Need to play around, but I think Ha, R, G, B are the right filters.

From having received data some time back on these two targets I found that there was very little oxygen signal despite a lot of integration time, so those filters would be a good choice.
