About this image

Not a great image - some murk about which adversely affected the sky transparency and image crispness.

Canon 6D modified, 200mm lens @f4, 15 x 10 mins @ ISO 200; CLS filter

I wanted to show the different nebulosities in terms of angular size, brightness, and location.

That is: M42 etc., the Horsehead / Flame, M78, Barnard’s Loop.
