Barnard's Loop

[AstroTanja (Tanja)]

As I enter my 4th year of being an astrophotographer, I can finally tick this target off my list. I've imaged Barnard's before but wasn't satisfied with the result.

And so, it became the 1st target of #EveryNewMoon, an imaging project Cory (@theastroshake) and I started for 2016.

Beautiful shot Tanja.

Well done Tanja. An excellent image. I appreciate the processing difficulties in this region of the sky with the very dense star fields.

A really nice image there Tanja. I never quite realised just how BIG it was, nice to see it in comparison to M42.
