((The description is really from Sh2-132, but why I can't write it in the object field?!))This nebula can be located between two fairly bright 6.5 magnitude stars in Cepheus/Lancerta border.With an O-III filter and 38x, the object is visible as an large, round, fairly faint patch of nebulosity with about 10 stars within it's system. Very faint nebulous streaks are running S from the middle and continue atleast 1 degree S. E part of the nebulosity is fairly brighter. A dark patch is running N-S direction in the object's W side but is barely visible.

(Hopefully the mistake is mine, but can't I add nothing more than NGC and M-objects here? Fix it or fix me, please!)IC 4665A pretty easy catch to the naked eye. Faint large glow, with at least 2 stars visible (magnitudes, 6.85 and 7.14). With keen adverted vsion a couple more stars could be spotted.
