Description and Details: This iconic nebula doesn’t need any presentation… It has been a couple of years since I last photographed the Horsehead and this year decided to do it again to have a better photo than last time.
I really enjoy how the details came out, either on the bright areas and on the dark ones, as well as the colors which, in my humble opinion, are quite natural and with the right contrast between them.
