Description

Winter has arrived and with it the Great Orion Nebula, one of a few targets I can confidently image with my current imaging train from under city lights. A great improvement from my first ever shot of it from Death Valley, but I had little experience back then. A few simple things could have been fixed; I'm still having trouble getting focus spot on, collimation continues to be a headache, and I didnt take flats (I didnt realize the cable for my flat panel was sitting in the trunk of my car just feet away). But all in all, happy to present my first image of 2024.
