#ic434 — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #ic434, aggregated by home.social.

  1. A couple of weeks ago I shot IC434 - the Flame Nebula along with Barnard 33 - the Horsehead Nebula.

    I added another 2.5 hours to that shot overnight, and the extra detail is amazing, even though the restacking rejected a lot of frames from both. In the end I got an extra hour of exposure.

    The image is centred on Alnitak - one end of Orion's Belt. Off in the corner we have the middle of the belt, Alnilam.

    To the right of Alnitak is NGC2024, and above and to the left is IC434 - The Flame Nebula, with the Horsehead Nebula on the right hand edge. In between the two nebulae, though, is a third one - NGC2023.

    Also scattered around are three other tiny and/or faint nebulae - IC431, IC432 (both below NGC2024) and IC435 (to the right of NGC2023).

    Lastly, in the top left quadrant we have Sigma Orionis.

    So we have a lot going on, and it makes for a pretty composition (in my opinion).

    Shot on a Dwarf3, 3hr 58 minutes, 60s@80, OIII/Ha filter. Post processed in Stellar Studio and Snapseed.

  12. I don't often get to photograph the Horsehead nebula (IC 434) due to the position of obstructions around the garden, but needed to test out the range of a replacement NUC, so it seemed like an ideal subject

  13. Es ist zwar noch in Bearbeitung (noch viel zu wenig Belichtungszeit), aber nachdem derzeit so vieles so schwierig zu verarbeiten ist, bekommt ihr es doch zu sehen.

  19. #SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #Horsehead Nebula aka #IC434 is a dark nebula near #Alnitak the easternmost star in Orion's Belt. The red hydrogen of the nebula is though to be excited by Sigma Orionis, the bright star in the upper right. The nebula doesn't rise until 2am at my location right now and I had to throw away many exposures due to clouds so this image is only 17 five-minute exposures captured in the wee hours this morning. #StillLearning

  20. Horsehead and Flame Nebula

    I have found that I am no longer able to complete a project in a single night, or even in several consecutive nights. As the end of the season is approaching, I have stopped working on my Horsehead Nebula and Flame Nebula project after only two hours of data and saved it to continue next year.
