Description

It's been a few weeks since I've been able to get out and shoot! Last night I captured a close up view of the Orion Nebula (M42), the closest 
star forming region to us located approximately 1,500 Light-Years away. This is a challenging target due to the high dynamic range from the core to
the fainter nebula around.
