IC 405, the Flaming star Nebula

IC 405, the Flaming Star Nebula, is also known as Sharpless 229 (Sh2-229) or a Caldwell 31. It's a mixture of an emission and reflection components. Usually the reflection component is not visible in narrowband photos but I shot it separately with a blue filter. This nebula located in constellation Auriga at distance of about 1500 light years.
