Description

The Orion and Running Man nebulae are located within the constellation of Orion and are one of the brightest nebula in the sky, being visible to the naked eye.

Despite being involved in astrophotography for about 10 months now, this is the first time I've properly imaged M42 and I was blown away by how bright it is. I used to HDR approach to try and maintain detail in the core, but I think even the 15s exposures I used for the core are too long.
