Description

Shot this with my Samyang 135 at the same time as the more zoomed in RedCat image of Orion and Horeshead nebulae.
Managed to sneak in the Boogeyman nebula along with a section of Barnard's loop. M78, a couple of cute molecular clouds top centre between Alninam and Mintaka along with the regular Orion, Running Man and Horsehead nebulae.
I love these wider angle images where you can point out in the sky Orion's belt (the three bright stars just right of centre in the top half of the frame), Orion's Sword centred on the Orion nebula and nonastro-geeks can see what's really up there where they're looking at a seemingly black sky with a few stars - in reality swimming with objects everywhere
