I've done it before, but on a moonless & crystal clear night, I couldn't resist! I captured this from 9pm untill about 2am when it slinked back below the horizon. It's such an amazingly beautiful, yet unfathomably giant structure! 🤩🤯

In this photo I captured the popular Horse Head and Flame nebulas. The photo is a stack of multiple tracked subs and processed to taste. Taken from a Bortle 2 dark area.

Two versions from the same photo set ane the need for post processing in astrophotography. More in alt. #Stunday #EastCoastKin #astrophotography #orion #orionnebula #flamenebula #horseheadnebula #pixinsight #nightskyphotography
I reprocessed the image with PixInsight, which I do not know as well as I would like to, and Graxpert. Pushing the stretch and contrast and cleaning up in Photoshop Elements allowed me to pull out the Horsehead Nebula and more detail I the other Nebula in the region. This was my first attempt at post processing the stack of about 30 images at 30 seconds, ISO 3200. I was pleased with the resolution of the Orion Nebula but a bit disappointed with not seeing the much fainter horsehead Nebula which is near the left hand star in Orion's belt.

I decided to shoot the Horsehead & Flame Nebulae since I already had my color camera attached for the comet. This uses no filter so it’s displaying true RGB color.

IC 434 Horsehead Nebula and NGC 2024 Flame Nebula - processed image by the s50. The Horsehead Nebula (IC 434) is a dark nebula silhouetted against a bright red emission nebula. The Flame Nebula (NGC 2024) is a glowing nebula. NGC 2024 Flame Nebula - Odyssey Pro processed image. NGC 2024, the Flame Nebula, is an emission nebula lit by the nearby bright star Alnitak, the easternmost star of Orion's Belt. IC 434 Horsehead Nebula - Odyssey Pro processed image. The Horsehead Nebula (IC 434) is a dark nebula in the constellation Orion, whose iconic shape is a cloud of dust silhouetted against a bright red nebula behind it.

Decided to spend the time this morning on an observation of the #horseheadnebula. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
The Horsehead Nebula - telescope processed image. A small, dark nebula in the constellation Orion, the Horsehead Nebula gets its name from its distinctive shape. It's a cloud of dust and gas. The Horsehead Nebula - unprocessed image. It's part of a much larger star-forming region, the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex, and its "horsehead" shape is due to a glowing gas behind it.

A stunning image of the Horsehead Nebula (Barnard 33) in Orion. The dark, dust-filled nebula silhouetted against a bright red background of ionized hydrogen gas. Young stars are forming at its base. Captured by the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. Light from the nebula takes 1500 years to reach Earth.

A breathtaking deep exposure image of the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex, showcasing the Orion Nebula (M42), the Horsehead Nebula, the Flame Nebula, and other celestial wonders. The vibrant colours highlight the illuminated gases and dark dust clouds within this star-forming region, approximately 1500 light-years away and spanning 75 light-years. The three stars of Orion's belt are prominently featured.

A breathtaking composite image showcases Orion's Belt and Sword rising majestically over the snow-capped peak of Mount Teide, a massive volcano in the Canary Islands. The vibrant Orion Nebula, along with the Horsehead and Flame Nebulas, are strikingly visible against the backdrop of a star-studded night sky. Headlights from climbers preparing for a pre-dawn ascent are faintly visible at the base of the volcano.
