Orion's Nebula (Cropped)

This is the cropped version of the previous photo. Again, its 5 ten second exposures at ISO 1600 and f1.8 stacked in Deep Sky Stacker.

 

Even at 10 seconds, I began getting star trails. The next project is to piggyback my camera on back of a borrowed telescope with an equitorial mount and try to manual guide some longer exposures.

 

For comparison sake, here is an infinitely better version of the orion nebula by another Flickr user.
