CommentVdB27 is a reflection nebula in Taurus, but in this field it is also possible to see another apparently wider reflection region on the left side, close to some dark nebulas.
The region is filled up with molecular clouds here and there enlighted by nearby stars. Some tiny galaxies from the PGC catalogue are visible as well.
