Description

I have been working on this image for the last months of december, january and february. You can see here the central part of the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex, in particular the area of the belt and sword. Starting from the bottom left, the nebula M78, the Flame, the Horsehead. On the right NGC 1977 (Running Man Nebula) next to the Orion Nebula.
