Alnitak & Co: the Horsehead Nebula IC434, the Flame Nebula NGC2024, and a bunch of little details in the frame. I decided to process a random stack from the old, still color-camera era... How beautiful it is, both the area around the blue giant and my old camera) I think this is a worthy result for 15 minutes of integration)

This is an amazing result for such a short integration time.

Thanks, I think so too) I've gone to work on the Messier catalog for now, but I'll definitely come back to it later) I have many stacks from different times around Alnitak)
