Description Ok, another image of the Orion Nebula for my gallery.
I took this one last December but haven't touched it till now, as I wasn't that happy with it and forgot all about it. i never did get a good go at this, so I'll try to get a better image of this next winter.

Hmm, the image isn't bad ! But you could corret the colour in a way that this would be more colorful and dosn't show such a blue cast. ^^

Thank you very much!! You're very kind! Yes, I love astronomy! Nothing better than taking images of stuff light years away and then looking up to see satellites and and shooting stars fly over. There's no reaon why you can't see this. Have a look through a telescope on a clear night Take care

wow, thanks for the big answer
Hehe you really write impassionate about astronomy... you're right, looking into the sky is beautiful, but I prefer a corn field or something like that and my own eyes, than a telescope (a bit too romantic )

For me is wonderfull. Those purple colors contrasts pretty well with the black color of space.
I wish you luck in your next try this winter

I do say so: You must have one badass telescope (and camera) to capture the Orion Nebula this well.

Thank you! I have got a pretty good scope and camera, but you don't really need too much of a badass telescope for the orion neb, because, as deep space stuff go, this one is really quite bright. With the naked eye, you can see it as a fuzzy star; 2nd one down in Orion's sword
