This is a widefield shot of part of the constellation Orion.

In the lower right (SW) corner of the image we find the Great Orion Nebula (M42/M43, center right we find the Zeta orionis nebula (sort of orange and x-crossed by dark lanes) and the pink Flame Nebula with the dark silhouette of the HorseHead Nebula superimposed.

Occupying the entire left (East) half of the image we find part of the enormous Barnard's Loop, thought to be the product of many supernovae explosions in the Orion Nebula Complex.

Top/center of the image we also find the reflection nebula M78, also crossed by a dark lane.

Brown dust and dark dust lanes fill the space in between M42 and M78 and even beyond.

Like most images on this page, this is a work in progress...
