Orion

Image Title: Orion

Date image was taken: 12/1/2022

Image Description and Details : Winter is here and so is Orion the Hunter. Visible to the naked eye as a fuzzy patch in the middle of Orion’s belt it is a target all astrophotographers have imaged or viewed at some time or the other. The net is replete with images ranging from the very wide to the very long. Orion is a tough image to capture due its high dynamic range between the Trapezium stars in its core and the faint dust clouds and gases which surround the region. In this 22hr long integration I tried to being out all the faint details while trying to preserve the core.
