Orion - 9 Pane Widefield + Hybrid Details
Here we have the iconic winter sky area of Orion.
I have used 9 panes from the Rokinon 135mm and enhanced the key LDN1622, IC 434, M42, M78 areas with detail from longer focal length scopes taken over the last 2+ years. I have tried to not be overly aggressive instead focussing on the details and tidiness of the overall image- hope you enjoy.
Best seen at full resolution but having trouble with the full-size version showing at the moment.
