The Orion Nebula

A quite heavily processed exposure of the great nebula in Orion.

Longer exposures are impossible from this site without filters. Thank

you for any comment you'd like to add.

This is good. The color is amazing. 6/6

Excellent shot of Orion Koen, great tracking for such a long exposure, such a wonderful sight in the sky.

wow wow wow .. is this your profession?

it's so beautiful!!

I just got an 8" Meade S-C 2000mm and a FinePix S3 Pro. You mentioned to someone about shooting Jupiter with at least a 12" scope. I'm hoping the 12mgpxl S3 will make up some difference. I am very excited and pictures such as this are making me impatient to "get it together." Thank you for sharing.

Great capture of this beautiful nebulae. Rich colors and details.

Koen, was there any particular reason that you used a red filter here?  It is still a very good shot, of course, but my own preference would be to use filters that bring in other frequencies--and, I think, more overall detail.
