Description

My capture of the Jewel of Winter - The Great Orion Nebula.

This is the first time I've been able to shoot the same image with two different astrographs - the Askar FRA500 reduced shooting luminance, and the Askar FRA300 shooting RGB. It's been a goal of mine for a while now to be able to shoot the same target with two different rigs to help collect more data, and I'm happy to finally have seen that through.

This image was captured at the Lucky Farm in rural Austin County, Texas on a moonless night.
