This is not a great image of this object, but it is the best one I've done to date. Located in the constellation of Orion, the Hunter, the Horsehead is part of a dense cloud of gas in front of an active star-forming nebula known as IC434 (also known as B-33). This nebula is near Alnitak, the easternmost star of Orion's belt.

Image was taken on 10/22/2011. 7x5 minutes, 35 minutes total exposure.

Very nice, looks like God plays chess also, on a much bigger board though.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
