Description

I am well aware that the Orion has been featured many times. However, this is a small milestone for me as I tried to combine for the first time two different imaging sessions together done with two different cameras and I was very surprised to see so much more detail and nebulosity coming out of the otherwise dark background sky. The tele lens I am stuck using is still a piece of cr*p but I try my best with what I have now.

I am very excited to try out the Samyang 135mm f/2 combined with a Halpha narrowband filter I bought recently.

As always, I would appreciate any comments and suggestions from your side. Clear skies
