Description | This is a very bright, fun object to capture within the constellation of Orion. I'd just finished a very tough night of capturing dim object. Seeing Orion in the sky, I couldn't resist going for this guy. My original capture was only 5m integration; this, at 30 minutes, is truly beautiful. |
