Description

This is the sister of image of the Horsehead Nebula I just uploaded. Tried to frame them both with Alnitak in the top left and right corner respectively. When I have time I will make a composite of them both. Total integration time was 23 minutes. As with the HH image, this was originally captured as a Live Stack in SC. To enhance the image, I then processed the raw FITS file in Startools. This pulled out a lot more fine detail.
