Description

This is my favorite nebula, and seeing the HST image of IC 434 when I was younger inspired me to get into this hobby in the first place, and sparked my interest in science and mathematics. This is the first truly high quality image I've ever taken with this much exposure time, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, Clear Skies!

Description: This is a reprocessed version of the Horsehead nebula, I learned some new skills in startools, and I think my processing skills have some catching up to do with what the camera is capable of. Let me know what you think! Clear Skies!
