This is the reflection nebula called the Witch Head Nebula, but officially IC 2118 (also with the catalogue number NGC 1909), near the very bright star Rigel, at lower left in Orion. But the nebula is over the border in Eridanus the River. Hot blue-white Rigel is the source of illumination lighting this dusty nebula. Some faint magenta emission nebulosity also populates the field in Orion.
