Description

I decided to leave Orion alone for this season but couldn't resist to shoot the Horsehead with my new telescope.

Man this is one of my favorite nebulae.

Post:

Stacked, stretched and corrected lightpollution in Astro Pixel Processor, then edited in photoshop.

The big punch which made it pop is that I luminance masked with it's own red channel.
