Description

Alnitak and friends. I wasn't expecting much when I imaged these objects but was pleasantly surprised given I took this image with an unmodded 450D. The position this object falls in my orange skies is on the edge of a significant light dome from a large metro area so processing out the noise and gradients was a challenge. All in all though, I'm satisfied with the overall result. Thanks for looking.
