Description

The Orion nebula, notoriously easy and hard as well. Being one of the brightest, it become the first target for many. I still remember watching a youtube video about it and going outside right after it finished, because I did not believe I can just use my phone and simple binocular to see it. Yes, this was the moment since when I am trapped in this hobby. Strangely, it was always the hard one for me. I never really took a decent photo of this beautiful nebula. The clouds, the trees ... and the processing. Even this time I only have half night of data but I could not resist I hope I will be able to add some more time soon.
