meets .

Off topic and possibly I'm not the first person to see this:

In the newer and enhanced images the looks like attributed to and not like a horsehead at all.

Horsehead and Flame Nebula

I have found that I am no longer able to complete a project in a single night, or even in several consecutive nights. As the end of the season is approaching, I have stopped working on my Horsehead Nebula and Flame Nebula project after only two hours of data and saved it to continue next year.

✨ORION under alpine skies✨

I had three clear nights under dark alpine skies in a row and decided to simply point my camera at the same thing every night. With over 9 h of exposure, this is the most time I've dedicated to a single photo so far.

The is a small emission nebula about 900 to 1500 light years from us. The is the small dark area amid deep red ionized hydrodren located about 1500 light years from us. Both are part of the rich molecular complex in the winter constellation Orion. The faint colors in the darker part of the sky hints at the potential to capture even more detail when I add to the 60 minutes of exposure that created this image.

I'm testing out the live-stacking feature in the latest beta version of @Siril_Official tonight!

@alex and I are photographing the Horsehead and Flame Nebulae from our NYC fire escape.

The region around Zeta Orionis or Alnitak (the first belt star in ) is filled with nebulae and stars, including the patchy Flame Nebula (NGC 2024, below Alnitak), the reddish curtain of IC 434 notched by the dark (IC 434) / Barnard 33, and side-by-side nebulae, IC 435 and NGC 2023, located below and to the left of the Horsehead. Seven hours of data with the RedCat 51 & ZWO ASI533 mc Pro camera. 🔭

The and are star formation areas in the molecular cloud about 1300-1500 light years from Earth. I captured five 2 minute exposures Saturday night before the clouds rolled in. I stacked and processed them in SiriL and GIMP. I'm pretty happy with my post-processing in this image but I am clearly .

Got the telescope out for the first time since leaving on this leg of our travels. This is a single 10 minute Ha exposure of the horsehead nebula. This is probably the most detail I've seen out of a single exposure since I've started. Excited to see how this one turns out.

First light on the Horsehead Nebula tonight! Shame the nights are so short, but I should be able to get some good data over the next few nights.
