Description

My first attempt at The Orion Nebula, photographed from Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, TX on December 9-10, 2018. The sky was crystal clear and seeing was above average. Winds were calm. Dew was heavy and begin to freeze on everything including my laptop which was running Polemaster and Backyard EOS. 72 frames were exposed for 70" and 8 frames at 15"at ISO 3200 with a Tamron 150-600mm G2 lens set at 600mm.

Description: I reprocessed this image to bring out more nebulosity and the surrounding dust, but left the color of the original stack mostly unmodified. The stretching brought out more noise though. I'll have to be happy with this version at least until 10 days from now when I can get under some dark, clear skies to gather more data. Thanks for looking.
