Description

This is a near full-frame crop of the Horsehead Nebula, including the e Ori Nebula NGC 1990.   The Orion constellation is full of fascinating nebulosity as one would be hard pressed to point a camera anywhere and not find something interesting! 

So many of you have provided such amazing photographs of this region, and I appreciate being inspired by you!   This was my first attempt with my new telescope and camera (since June 2021).  This is all so new to me, and I'm thrilled to share an early attempt, although not up to the level of so many here.   Thanks for looking!
