The naked eye sees what looks like light white smoke-like "clouds" intermixed with stars. Once you see it for the first time on a clear sky night with a new moon, you won't forget it or miss it. The Dark Horse nebula is visible if you look hard and is clearer durning total darkness which lasts a finite amount of time, which varies but can be found with apps. The camera brings out more of the colors depending upon either your WB setting in camera or manipulation during post-processing. There are several processing maneuvers that will bring out colors, dodging and burning peas, etc.
