Orion Revealed

[Knight of Clear Skies]

Here's something I've been playing with over the last couple days, a simulated view of Orion to show the what's visible from a dark site and what long exposure photography can reveal.

(Best viewed in 1080P and full screen.)

I've occasionally been involved in public outreach activities, so it could be useful for that. And yes, I'm aware the town view should be coloured orange, but I couldn't quite bring myself to add light pollution to one of my images.

A few more details here if you're interested, hope you like it.
