Belt of Orion and Orion Nebula
Such a crisp clear night here - the forecast is saying a prediction of minus 6C overnight which is is very cold for my part of County Down.
Anyway, so clear and dark looking that I felt I should point a camera at it.
It was only a notion and I had the 105 sigma lens on which is probably not a reasonable choice and I didnt really know what settings to use and couldnt be bothered looking anything up or even spending a lot of time playing with settings ...but I got something satisfactory and interesting (both very subjectively and set against low expectations)
an experiment of sorts.....
May try again soon and build on this
For the 125 pictures in 2025 group: number 36. Experimental
