B33 and NGC2023 Horsehead nebula

In the night of 2-3 January I shot a very difficult object in constellation Orion. It is the Horsehead nebula (red line) and NGC2023 nebula (green line).
These nebulae are 1600 lightyears distance from us. It was the first time I tested autoguiding with my telescope. It is a composed picture with a total exposure time of 1hour17min on ISO400.

Challenging object, I hope to try it again, and better, next time.
