Image Description and Details: CTA 1 - A supernova remnant in Cepheus.

I knew I would get a lot of clear nights during this time of year and I wanted to do something very rare. I had never seen this before and when my friend Reg showed it to me, I had to frame it up. I knew it would be a hard one considering how faint it appears in most images. It was definitely a challenge to process.
