Description

This is an integration of 25 panels of the Orion constellation region imaged over the last 2 years. I had intended to add some more integration to the outer regions to bring out more details but got involved in other projects that consumed my night sky imaging time. I will complete this project later this year when Orion is back in the sky with enough time.  Processing and editing the image must have been the hardest one so far as there are various regions with variant illuminations mainly the Orion Nebula area and other.
