Description

Maybe I have coined a name for the Graffiti Nebula.  I like it but there is nothing official about it.

This section of Sh2-161 also shows NGC7538.  This cloud is neighbor to the Lobster Claw and Bubble nebulae, and lies between Cassiopeia and Cepheus.

I think the boc globules add much to this image.  These dense dark clouds obscured all visible light emitted from within it.  They are known to be some of the coldest objects in the natural universe, their structure and density remains somewhat a mystery. (Wikipedia)
