The Horsehead Region - in Technicolour (Sidonio'd) (again)

ED: Just reprosessed to fix a few shortcomings missed while processing at midnight with conjunctiveitis (no joke)

Well it's nearly 6 years since I last imaged this popular sucker and the first time I have done the traditional Horsehead-Flame-Alnitak group framing.

Once an image opens, it's a good idea to hit F11 on your keyboard for Full Screen mode too

Traditional rectangular framing 40% full res

The Horsehead only 70% full res

The Flame Nebula 80% full res

The whole Full Frame 40% full res

Super close up on the Horse 200% full res

Interestingly, I did no work on Alnitak at all, this is how it came together in the LHaRGB combine, so I am quite happy with the degree of halo/flaring from this bright sucker.
