Description

The M42, M43 and Sh2-279 collectively known as Orion Nebula and the Running Man. A popular target amongst many amateur astrophotographers. This target has such a huge dynamic range and as such many different variations can be found. Some tone down the core of Orion to expose the tarpezium ( a star cluster in the core ) while others display the whole object with all of the dark dust clouds and allow the core to shine brightly as it naturally does though an eye piece. I have chosen to go with the later with this image.
