M42 30min 20Jan2012 500mm. No filters used.
I only managed to secure 30 one minute exposures. This was stacked, processed and cropped. Taken from my backyard, 90 minutes should be the ideal to bring out more detail. Canon 550D, Sigma 150-500mm lens piggyback on Meade LX200GPS 2500mm telescope. M42 is the Orion Nebula in the constellation of Orion. The Running Man Nebula is at the bottom of the image. Slightly from the middle of the image towards the upper left corner a satellite passed through.
