Description

This is a new version of this classic pair of celestial targets that was created with about 50% more frames than a previous version which highlights the additional structure of nebulosity surrounding this pair. This is RGB only, with no Lum frames applied. Since this is fundamentally different in terms of density of data and processing than my previous version of Horsehead and Flame, I chose to upload as a new image. It represents the collection of small amounts of data over approximately two months - during many different evenings when the weather was clear.
