Description

Last two nights were cold and clear, although somewhat foggy and showing lots of reflected light from the heavy snow on the ground.

Having an additionel 40 minutes, I decided to shoot the Flame Nebula (with the Horsehead as a free bonus).

Apparently, working in the snow and cold added some smudges/spots to some surface(s) in my image train, which is annoying. Other than that, quite a nice region to behold.
