Cederblad 111

From astrodonimaging.com

"Cederblad 111 (Ced 111) is a blue reflection region in the southern constellation of Chamaeleon (Cha), and is part of one of the closest (~550 light years) dark cloud complexes to the Sun. It is near the top center portion of the image above. Ced 110 is the bright reflection in the lower center portion of the image with the distinct bright arc. Both are part of Cha I dark cloud complex. The median age is estimated at ~2 Myr. The cloud complex is a stellar nursery and many new stars have been detected through their variability and H-a emission. The bright, cone-shaped object near the top center is the Chamaeleon Infrared Nebula (IRN). The small, elongated, bright red objects at the center of the image are Hebrig-Haro objects (HH 49-50), which form from a collision between ionized jets of gas ejected from newly born stars and the surrounding cloud."
