M42 - The Orion Nebula

This is 67 minutes of light stacked of Orion's belt and you can see Orion's Belt at the top of the image, with the Orion Nebula in the bottom left and the Running Man Nebula just above that.

 

However, if you look to the left star of Orion's Belt, called Alnitak, you can see the Flame Nebula and just a little tiny wisp of the Horsehead nebula! Four nebulae for the price of one!
