Here is a Hydrogen alpha image of LDN 1622 in Orion. I see a winged dark dragon flying away to the left. What do you see?

Great looking capture Murray.

I love the detail and contrast.

I believe it is also called the "Boogie Man." Nice capture, Murray.

It looks like Batman to me. Head at the top (where else?), wide cape spreading out from the shoulders and legs at the bottom. If you look carefully you can even see the pointy ears at the top of the head (Well, maybe)
Well done Murray. I never knew about this object.
