用固定在三脚架上的相机拍摄，许多短曝光与星星对齐，揭开了这美丽而黑暗的夜空。这张照片摄于西班牙东北角的奥尔巴尼村附近，猎户座腰带上的三颗恒星横跨这幅星图的上方中央。星带的最东端（左）是靠近火焰星云的弥散光芒和著名的马头星的黑暗缺口的星带。猎户座大星云位于腰带星的下方，很容易用肉眼看到。它距离我们只有1500光年，是离我们美丽的星球最近的大型恒星托儿所。巴纳德环线宽阔而微弱的弧线在照片中最为清晰，它似乎拥抱了猎户座更明亮的恒星和星云。在北方的春天，熟悉的北方冬季星座正在形成。在西方地平线附近，猎户座右下方明显明亮的蓝色超巨星参宿七正好碰到一棵松树的树枝。

Taken with a camera fixed to a tripod, many short exposures were aligned with the stars to unveil this beautiful, dark night sky. Captured near the rural village of Albany`a at the northeastern corner of Spain, the three stars of Orion's belt stretch across top center in the starry frame. Alnitak, the easternmost (left) of the belt stars is seen next to the more diffuse glow of the Flame Nebula and the dark notch of the famous Horsehead. Easily visible to the naked-eye The Great Nebula of Orion is below the belt stars. A mere 1,500 light-years distant, it is the closest large stellar nursery to our fair planet. Best seen in photographs, the broad and faint arc of Barnard's Loop seems to embrace Orion's brighter stars and nebulae though. In the northern spring the familiar northern winter constellation is setting. Near the western horizon toward lower right Orion's apparently bright blue supergiant Rigel just touches the branches of a pine tree.
