Orion’s Nebula
by Mike Hankey, under Nebula
I finally got my pier up and running and had a perfect night to break it in. Orion is just now starting to come out again and I figured I would have a go at my favorite nebula. Here’s a quick process of four frames ranging in exposure time from 30 seconds to 1.5 minutes. I was not auto guiding and my polar alignment was a little off (still working things out).

Totally awesome. Love the lavenders. Nice shot.

One of your best shots yet! Won’t be too long before you start finding little green men…
