Description

I can't express with words my happiness in managing to pull off this photo of the Orion's Nebula (M42), it's companion M43 and the Running Man Nebula (NGC 1981) with the modest equipment I have. Together these objects form "Orion's Sword", in the big and beautiful Orion Constellation.

NOTE that this photo was NOT taken with a telescope.It's actually my first Deep Sky photo that I'm pleased with...
