Yup, Orion. It is on my to-shoot list, but I dont really have a good scope for it. I think the FOV on my Newt is a little to far in, and I dont have a good imaging apo. Next best thing is my telephoto lens, but that may be a bit wider than I want. Going to have to try something though :) Probably going to shoot that one end of December.

Thank you Ann :)
It's up high in the right season for sure.

That is so lovely, what a great job you did! Forget the "praying" ghosts, they are out there celebrating Hallowe'en!

This one really pushed my setup to the max. It is 3 hours of exposure and could easily use another 6 hours. I had to push the data hard to get the faint stuff out. Has to be one of the most interesting objects in the night sky.
