Description

The Great Nebula in Orion, the Horsehead, the Flame, Barnard's Loop, the Rosette. I love images that put the classics in context.

50mm F1.8 Nikon lens at F2.8.

Version B used the new Astro Pixel Processor for initial gradient reduction, followed by ABE in PixInsight. This allowed for more contrast.
