This image shows Alnilam lighting up NGC 1990. The photo was taken by Glen Youman of the website astrophotos.net. As of March 2004, the image is also available at http://astrophotos.net/images/nebula/ngc1990.jpg .

The page http://astrophotos.net/pages/Nebula/NGC%201990.htm lists the following information about the image:

NGC 1990 Orion Foresthill, California December 1998 FS-128G (ag, ST-4) hPJ400, stack of two 45 minute exposures

NGC 1990 surrounds the belt star Epsilon Orionis. This reflection nebula is of such low magnitude as to be invisible in all but the larger scopes. There are two very faint detached reflection nebulae in the lower left of the photo, my star charts do not identify these nebulae.

 Dear Mr. Youman,
 
 I wanted to let you know that I enjoyed your astronomy photos at
 astrophotos.net. I found it by searching Google for a star I wanted
 images of, while doing research for the free online encyclopedia
 "Wikipedia". I thought that your images (and one in particular) might
 be worthy of inclusion in our growing document.
