Another Obscure "Bright" Nebula: LBN 185, and IC 1470
The AL Bright Nebula list has quite a few not-very-bright nebulae on it. Here's one that's bright enough to image from a red zone + a nearly full moon: LBN 185 in Cygnus, a 5 on the LBN brightness scale.
I believe LBN 185 is the bright area near the center of the image. There's another bright area at the left edge of the image, but so far as I know that has no designation. This took 3.8 hours of H alpha imaging, and even at that the background is still rather rough. A couple of nights before I also got this image of IC 1470:
