Orion's belt and sword

I added another half hour of imagery to what I already had, so this image consists of 65 minutes of data. After shooting it this latest time, I realized that I hadn't been balancing my tracker correctly when shooting south, so when I image it again this fall, I hope to be more efficient with getting non-star-trailed 60-second subs.

 

Acquisition details: Fujifilm X-T10, Samyang 135mm f/2.0 ED UMC @ f2.0, ISO 1600, 65 x 60 sec, tracking with iOptron SkyTracker Pro, stacking with DeepSkyStacker, editing with Astro Pixel Processor and GIMP, taken Oct. 6 2019 and Feb. 27, 2020 under Bortle 3/4 skies.
