Description

There have only been a few cloudless nights in recent months, and Orion was no longer at it's culmination. Over many years of astrohobby  I've never photographed Orion's Nebula before. The seeing was disgusting, and in the southwestern direction there is heavy light pollution from the greenhouses. However, I'm happy with the result!
