A large, dim glow, between two pretty pairs of stars about 3 degrees apart. The glow itself was roughly 3/4 degree in extent. Swept up without reference to charts in my "Milky Way bug hunt," then confirmed later.

Picked up by sweeping with binoculars in Cas. Fairly obvious as an irregular fuzzy patch halfway between Gamma Cas and Chi Cas. Appeared roughly crescent-shaped, with the opening in the direction of Chi. With averted vision a few (3? 4?) brighter members resolved into stars.
