:alien:The Orion Nebula is such a wonderful sight in the December skies and well worth standing out in the cold for a few hours. I put on my thermal fishing suit and boots to get this image, by the time I had finished my telescope was coated with ice crystals and the ground was hard and crunchy under my feet. While the camera was taking the shots I could stand there and admire the majesty of Orion towering above the houses, its a beautiful universe.
