Description

Dark nebula from bortel 8 is a challenge..!

Very dynamic area of the sky, really joy to capture and process.

The Horsehead Nebula, also known as Barnard 33, and its companion, the Flame Nebula, sit near the star Alnitak in Orion’s Belt. this dark cloud’s signature shape is only visible because its silhouette obscures the light from the brighter nebula behind it.

I welcome any input or comments..
