I am reposting this here, this image is super nice:

This is a two frame hydrogen alpha mosaic of the Horsehead region of
Orion. I don't post here often, but my AP160 gets used remotely an
average of 10-12 nights a month. The AP160/U16M combo are a beautiful
match with the field flattener, perfect stars to the corners. The
AP1200GTO has done extremely well operating remotely.

Hope you like it.

Scott, Roland,
Very lovely mosaic. The image is very detailed - lots of structure evident.
