This image was obtained with the wide-field view of the Mosaic Camera on the Mayall 4-meter telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory. This globule is located just south of vdB 141, a reflection nebula located in the constellation Cepheus. This very faint nebula looks like a bird about to take flight. North is down and East is to the right.
