Single shot Orion

[Michael-H]

This is a single 20s exposure using my Fujifilm X100T and a shoe for support. Yes, an actual shoe. It was captured at 2800m in the Himalayas. The closest town was about 7km away and did not have electricity. You can easily see the Great nebula and the flame nebula (ngc2024), and even the horse head and Bernard's loop if you know where to look.

Stunning photo. A long way to go to find a dark site mind you.

very nice michael, You've even got the rosette nebula popping it's head over the treeline. And isn't that the cone nebula to the left of the tall tree?

Shows just what a dark sky can do. Great photo.
