It includes NGC 2024, the Flame Nebula, next to brilliant star Alnitak (leftmost star of Orion’s Belt), the blue and smoky NGC 2023 and the iconic Horsehead Nebula. Shot over several evenings and integrated from 4 hours of total exposure time.” Thank you, Jeremy! See more of the best deep-sky photos below.
