The importance of triggered star formation is a current matter of debate. In this paper we approach the issue by doing small-scale, deep-field study of low-mass star formation in Orion. Using the VLT/ISAAC we performed pointed observation in Js, H and K bands towards cometary-shaped, high Galactic latitude molecular clouds, which are dynamically influenced by the Orion-Eridanus bubble. We present preliminary photometry results and YSOs classification of one targeted region, the LBN917 molecular cloud. Tentative result suggests an existence of a preferred direction of the star formation wave propagation in the region.
