Description

It's nice that a 200mm lens frames this target so nicely. Just a minor crop to remove stacking artifacts, the Skytracker "self dithers". Not perfect, but I like the relationships between familiar targets.

EDIT V2 is up. By adjusting the way I did color, I got rid of a number of artifacted stars.

V3. Interesting thing to process. I've pulled up more dim stuff here, I think it reflects Orion better. YMMV.
