Eta Carina Nebula

In our southern skies and located around 8500 light years from us is this complex of bright and dark nebulosity. Around 4 times as large as the Great Orion Nebula, this is one of the largest diffuse nebula in our skies.

Probably the last image of Orion for this season.
Please click See More to read the complete description

Just over 1 hour exposure with my Canon T3 Full spectrum modded and Samyang 135mm f2

What's in the frame?

The big red region in the center of the image is the famous and beautiful Horsehead Nebula also known as IC434. It is a dark nebula which resembles a horse head.

The yellowish nebula to 7 o' clock of Horsehead is Flame Nebula.

To the top right, is the famous and most commonly imaged nebula, M42 or the Great Orion Nebula. It is one the brightest Nebulae and is visible to naked eyes even from the cities.

The three diagonal stars starting between Horsehead and Flame is known as the belt of the Orion, named, Alnitak (below), Alnilam (middle) and Mintaka (top).

To the bottom left corner, you can see a very small reddish part of the Barnard's loop, which is another emission nebula in the constellation of Orion.

The Witch Head Nebula, formally known as IC2118, is an extremely faint reflection nebula, located in the constellation of Orion. It's shape resembles a face of a witch, with nose and pointy chin.

Located around 40 light years away from the star Rigel, this Beta of the constellation Orion is reason, the nebula is shining or else it would be completely dark.

IC2118 is believed to be an ancient supernova remnant and is located around 900 light years away from us and spreads across 70 light years.

California Nebula, designated as NGC1499, is an intense Hydrogen emission nebula, located in the constellation of Perseus.

The Nebula got it's name from it's shape which resembles the shape of the state of California, USA.
Around 60 light years across, it lies around 1500 light years away from us.

The glow of the Nebula is due to the nearby star (to the right of Nebula), Xi Persei, which is a blue giant, over 12000 times brighter than our Sun. This star ionizes the hydrogen atoms in the nebula.

The image is captured under Bortle 7 skies using :

Missed Neowise due to bad weather, but Atlas is in my atlas.. This is the first light through my new Samyang 135mm f2. It had to wait 2.5 months to be used for astro.

Winter is "almost" here !!
The hunter is back.. get your gears on as one of the most imaged areas of the sky is back !!

The constellation Orion !!
Started a new project to make at least a 20 hour HaRGB image of Orion this year...
Could add only 44min of Ha data last night as the fog rolled in. RGB is a 4h 34min integration taken last year..
Total integration in this image is 5h 18min till now.. still 15h to go..

The HorseHead Nebula, also known as Barnard 33, is an extremely dense cloud projecting in front of the ionized gas that provides the pink glow. Located around 1375 light years away, it resembles the shape of a horse head.
The nebula is located to the South of Alnitak, the left most star of the 3-starred Orion Belt.
To the west of Alnitak (bottom left of the HorseHead Nebula in the image), we can see an emission nebula around 900-1500 light years away, also known as Flame Nebula or Sh2-277.

Total Exposure : 44min 30secs on unmodded Canon T6

The "E" in the space

Barnard's E or "E" is a dark Nebula present in the constellation of Aquila. It consists of a pair of 2 dark nebulae, Barnard's 142 and 143, forming the shape of letter E with the background of milky way.
To spot this nebula, look for the bright star Tarazed, gamma of the constellation Aquila. The nebula is just to the right of it.

The bright star in the left part of the image is Tarazed

Located around 2000 light years away from us, this nebula is one of the less shot targets by the Astrophotographers.
