Description

This classic section of the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex never gets old! There are so many great objects to choose from, I wasn't sure which one to zero in on as my target. The weather forecast for the next few days looks a bit windy, so I went for one night's worth of a widefield image. I'm adding to my list some of the interesting, less-imaged targets in this field (like IC 426, left side of image) at a higher focal length.
