Description

Sh2-204 is an overlooked arc-shaped HII region in Camelopardalis. Even in H-alpha it is faint, and the SII is barely detectible. OIII appears to be absent, though perhaps longer exposure time could reveal something. So I've dropped the SII and OIII here, and added the H-alpha to RGB. Not much is known about this object. The scientific literature has some spectral analysis and a distance measurement, but beyond that, nothing significant has been published.
