Horsehead Season

Hi All,
Here is a horsehead I did recently. I have attached a mid size image, but full size image and exposure / processing detils are at:

I did use HA exposures for the Luminance construction along with some straight luminance exposures.

Wow, very nice detail! You must have had some good seeing for that. Vince

Very pretty, Jim.
The full size image header promises a Horse Head AND a Flame, but I don't see a flame. Did it burn out?

Thanks all for looking and for your comments on the Horsehead image.

Vince, The seeing was good - thanks to my proximity to the Pacific Ocean - it produces fairly stable skies. Unfortunately it also produces some marine layer and overcast too from time to time.

Dan, Ha! I used the same webpage as a template from an earlier horsehead *and* flame image page. Well hte new one has a different heading now - thanks for catching it!

Totally incredible image Jim!
I hope to try that one whenever the skies clear here in Seattle and there is no moon.

Waiting, waiting, waiting.....

Tom
