Description

A hell of a faint Ha region just above Orion's belt. Really hige one tho. If captured from dark skies, you can capture the faint dust around it. While I processed the image, I tried to pull out that faint dust. I was so happy to capture that faint dust around it. Also, processing was a pain becouse I tried to saturate the nebula itself but meanwhile the Horse head nebula in lower right corner was a strong burning red smash. At the end, I think I managed to have a balance between everything.

Captured with Canon EOS 1300D astromodified, Canon EF 50mm f1.8 STM lens and a Star Adventurer tracking mount.

Some 2h data all stacked and edited in PixInsight.

I hope you will like it.
