2/18/2023 Barnard’s Loop and Orion with a DSLR

To be honest, it was a full spectrum modified DSLR with a dual narrowband filter to let hydrogen alpha light through. This image was made from 45 two minute images with a 50mm lens on a Canon T5i. Tracking but not guided.

Barnard’s Loop is part of the Orion molecular cloud complex which includes the Orion Nebula (below center). The bright star in the upper left is Betelgeuse while the one in the lower right is Rigel.
