Description

These are probably two of my favorite targets in the sky. I spent much of the weekend sitting outside staring up above looking at Orion. Since I only see these objects captured in Broadband or just Ha I thought it was fine time to show off the area in SHO (Sulfur, Hydrogen Alpha, and Oxygen). I think you get a great idea of the complex Ha clouds with the Sulfur. I really enjoy this image and hope you do too!

Title: (M42) Orion Nebule & (NGC 2023) Horse Head in SHO

Description: As I have learned PixInsight more over a year I decided to go back and update this image in SHO using newer tools I didn't have a year ago. I took advantage of NoiseXTerminator, and NarrowBandNormalization and used HDRTransform a little more carefully to make sure Orion Nebula was more detailed.
