Orion nebula

[mpeniak]

Tried it again but next time I must start imaging earlier because I did not get many frames. This one is only 8x 25sec. Light pollution from streetlight is clearly visible but notice that blue nebulosity in top left corner. What is that? Hints of the horsehead nebula?

Looks like you caught a bit of the Running Man Martin, well done mate!

Yep running man and staring to show quite nicely too. Now that you know where that bit is you can shift to bring it into the image a bit more in subsequent sessions.

Nice capture -

This one was taken at 5:15 so by earlier I meant around 4:30 or so. I can't see it from my garden either. Have to go ouside my house to see it. That's the place where police sow my earlier and thought I had rocket luncher.

Try a baader neodynium filter for light pollution martin! No expert at imaging but i have found it very useful for visual!

Lovely martin, have a look in the primer section, i put a link in there the other day on an advice sheet that shows you how to take the orange glow out of the picture, it works quite well.
