Description

Lambda Orionis commonly known as the head of Orion (and Collinder 69) is a beautiful multiple/open star cluster system that I always enjoyed visually observing at low to mid powers. Its located appx 1300 light years from Earth. I decided to take a quick image of this with both UV/IR and L-Pro filters. I was surprised at how much HA was in the L-Pro so I decided to extract that channel in APP and add it back to the RGB image. For only 3hrs of data I'm quite pleased with it.

For those of you that are interested in more background of this system here is a link to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_Orionis_Cluster

Thanks for looking!
