Description

Located right next to the bright star Bellatrix in Orions head lie several nice emission objects, a reflection nebula and Herbo-Haro object along with a carbon star and lots of small galaxies. This image of the region took me a while to acquire due to weather. I started the first exposure in Oct of 2018 and finished up the last in early January. The image is comprised of 26.5hrs worth of Ha and RGB.
