M42

One of my first attempts in astrophotography. What do you think?

Pretty ok image of the central region in M42. Try longer exposures and merge them together.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that.

Nina, there's more stars & nebulae on your Orion photo than on mine. Do you use a telescope? Cheers, Sam.

Well, I was thinking of some other photo of Orion. I used telescope for this, yes. It was actually pretty hard to take this photo. I used 13 second exposure while I was holding camera in my hands. There was also one astronome who tried hard to make me laugh while doing this, so... I'm suprised it is not completly spoiled.
