M42 The Great Orion Nebula - a photo on Flickriver

            This is a combination of new data from a Bortle 1 / Bortle 2 location and some older data from a Bortle 1 location (Okie-Tex Star Party)

I love the Orion Nebula. It's just so beautiful. It glows hot and bright with powerful stellar winds shaping massive dust clouds, star formation that can be viewed with the naked eye.

This is a target that I plan to keep adding data to.

New data: 
35) 2-minute, 100-gain Red
35) 2-minute, 100-gain Green
35) 2-minute, 100 gain Blue
