This is the Horsehead nebula through my Seestar S50. It is about 15 minutes of exposure.

The only post-processing I used was the edit mode on the Seestar app.

This was taken in a bortle 5 zone.

Seestar is a great device to grab images to share. I also went out this week to try for the Flame and Horsehead nebula. The first night I tried to get an image using the framing "mosaic" function but Seestar had difficulty stacking; so I obtained the higher magnification image without using mosaic. Then tried again the following night. Stacking in mosaic mode worked well so grabbed images of Flame, Horsehead, Orion, and Running Man Nebula

Here is my Flame and Horsehead Nebula shot. No mosaic. 15 minutes exposure.

This is mine. Just my second night with the scope. Mosaic with sigma Orionis at the bottom. The mosaic didn't finished and I didn't crop out all the noise. This is definitely a learning experience. We all have Recretos's shot as something to strive for.  https://www.cloudyni...tos/?p=13887252
