Description

I intended to spend the first clear night of the week imaging M33. After several hours of M33 it was about 1 AM and I looked to the Eastern horizon and there was Orion's Belt, which I had not seen for many months. I couldn't resist the temptation to grab a few images (10 at 180 Sec) of the Orion Nebula, even though it was low on the horizon.
