HorseHead Nebula in SHO
I've always wanted to tackle this target at this focal length so using the CDK24 Data was a lot of fun. This is my first contest entry on Telescope live looking forward to more in the future!
This was edited to be viewed in Portrait orientation but with the crop applied in that layout I decided to leave it horizontal so the full image was viewable.
