Description

One of the most identifiable nebulae in the sky, the Horsehead Nebula in Orion, is part of a large, dark, molecular cloud. Also known as Barnard 33, the unusual shape was first discovered on a photographic plate in the late 1800s.

This is my very first CCD picture and the result of the first light of the camera.

Processing has been conducted with he help of Nico Geissler and Frank Iwaszkiewicz
