Description

Back in November while working on M42, at my dark site, I decided to grab a quick 34 minutes of the Horsey before leaving, I couldn't resist... The dark site really pays off. I decided to process this data anyway.

I think the Horsehead is one of my favourite objects. I still have some old Astronomy magazines from '95 that had the horsehead nebula and I was always in awe of it back then, to think now I am able to take those images.

PS. If you look close, you can see Alnitak is split.
