Description

This is my first attempt at photographing the famous Horsehead and Flame nebula complex. I found this deep-sky target rather tricky to process due to it being primarily an H-alpha emission target so photographing with a color camera will require a lot of equivalent exposure time to pull out enough detail. Overall not bad for a first try in a Bortle class 7 light pollution zone, definetely can't wait to collect more data on this one!
