Integrated Flux Nebula - α UMi

Another super hardcore imaging session with AT1: This time we targeted a rare and little-known area of IFN dust near Polaris, taking advantage of the long October night to capture it from evening until morning.
Also visible in the frame is the open cluster NGC 188, located in the lower right corner. And roughly in the center is Polaris itself.

Unfortunately, this will be my last photo for about a year. Just one day later, I’m leaving for military service. I want to say thank you to everyone in advance, and see you in a year.
