Description

This is an image of IC4601, a reflection nebula located at the backend of the Blue Horse Head nebula. The image was shot in LRGB from Brisbane, Australia, over four nights in June 2023. I have always struggled with getting dark nebula to show up well, which could possibly be due to the Bortle 6 zone I shoot from, so I really put some hours into this image to try and bring out the details of the dark nebula. It worked out ok, but I think I still have some process skill development to go in this area.
