Description

The Orion Nebula, taken with a small refractor telescope from our Bortle 9 backyard. About one full night and some.

Made the mistake of shooting 30s exposures for the core, but still way too bright. Should have went with 10 sec.

We made a video about it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sROH2FRyIUc
