Just looking around and found this special postcard from Ulrich. So I decided to write this post for Viridian´s Sunday Stamps.
Here the stamp itself, a bit bigger. It´s beautiful.
The Horse-head Nebula is part of our Milky Way. Though the mist in the form of a horse's head is a deep dark cloud that absorbs all light, you can see it with a telescope - a silhouette in front of the glowing Orion Nebula.
And here the whole set:
A special feature is the tenant of the 55-cent stamps of the solar system in a sheet. The sun and the Milky Way combine both brands. The four special stamps were designed by the graphic artist Hans Werner Schmidt. Year of print 2011.
Which one do you prefer?
