Was interesting driving to work this morning, at about 5:30am on the freeway (F3), looked up and there were some dark clouds over the top of some lighter clouds.. they had a very interesting shape and actually looked like the horsehead nebula!
Has anyone seen the horsehead visually?
Rod and I were able to catch a glimpse of it at the SPSP this year, in a 20" obsession with a H-beta filter and an 11mm Nagler (I think, can't quite remember the focal length of the nagler).
It was very, very faint but it could be seen. I don't think it would be worth spending the money on a h-beta filter for, but I spose if you've got the cash and want a challenge.. why not!?
