Scorpius Head including Blue Horsehead Nebula & Rho Ophichui region

The first time I took a photo of this region was in March of 2023 using a Canon 6D MkII and camera lens. I was astounded to find this much color in such a large area of the sky. This picture shows WAY more detail and color than that picture 2 years ago. I hope in 2 more years I will be able to improve on this pic as well. This pic was way more work than the previous and well worth it.

PixInsight 100%. This is my 6th pic developed using PI exclusively.

This is the 6th pic I have developed with PI since purchasing it 3/15/25. Learning PI has been every bit as difficult as everyone says. I bought the Adam Block training videos too. That has been difficult as well. PI is a unique product and here is my conclusion, the creative latitude you have with PI far exceeds any other product out there. I am a neophyte to PI and I am glad I decided to invest the time to begin learning in depth.
