Sh2-264 with Cederblad 51
  
        
          
            The famous reflection nebula Cederblad 51 in the head of Orion is part of the big emission nebula complex Sharpless 264. For this wide angle view, I used one of the Takahashi FSQ-106 ED telescopes (SPA-3) of Telescope Live at Oría, Spain. The exposures were 30 min L, G and B each and 90 min R (because of partially hazy skies). 20 H-alpha exposures were mixed intu the luminance after removing the stars. Thus, the total exposure time was 5h 35 m.
