Description

After the horsehead set, I decided to try pointing my scope at something in the east and let it run until dawn, still with the same L-enHance filter on there.

I didn't really expect much, but I thought maybe I'd see some star forming regions show up. It actually turned out better than expected! The image isn't particularly spectacular, and could definitely use a lot more exposure time (which I can hopefully add in the coming month), but those star-forming regions really do pop.
