Description

The Orion Nebula is a highly rewarding target for beginners. This picture was obtained from an unguided session. Shorter and longer exposures were combined to increase the dynamic range, revealing the nebula's central stars (including the Trapezium star cluster) whilst maintaining detail at the outer regions of the nebula.
