Description
This deepscape image shows the sword of Orion rising over a scenic mountain formation in central Switzerland. The famous Orion Nebula, the Horsehead and Flame Nebula and part of Barnard's Loop are coloring the sky in a stunning way.
Deepscapes are an attempt to take landscape astrophotography to the next level. This image is not a digital art collage of an unrelated sky and foreground, but a real alignment. A snowshoe hike with a mobile deep sky imaging rig to a carefully planned site on a mountain slope was required to capture this scene. Foreground and sky were captured back to back during the same night and from the same tripod position.
