Photo captured in the wild, under natural light, in Austria.
A CN SD40-2W, a personal favorite of mine leads a southbound loaded ore train into Culver, Minnesota as the hot ore pellets steam in the cold winter weather.
It was really starting to cloud over making the stars less visible. Oh well, it was a fun night even though my toes were freezing.

Welcome back, Orion! Changing seasons means the winter constellations are returning. This stacked photograph was taken with a Canon R5, 400m lens, and 1.4 teleconverter on an iOptron Skyguider Pro.
2 Nébuleuses visibles, deux presque détectables...
Ciel pollué (et surtout trop humide) à l'horizon.
Pas de guidage, une seule prise.
Algunos pensaréis que he volteado la foto, pues no, es la costumbre que a veces tiene el gato de girar la cabeza y así lo capté.
Gracias a todos por visitar mi galería, por vuestros favoritos y comentarios.

An ore train dumps on Dock 6 while limestone loads with 2449 head up the ramp from Missabe Junction to Collingwood.
Nebulas in Orion, a first attempt. A few things to fix, but I still enjoy the result!
Happy New Year!
Peace and Cheers!

Finally got a clear night without the moon around to try out the star tracker again early in the night here just outside Baltimore. It was a little breezy so that impacted the captures. Considering the light pollution the results turned out pretty cool.
Orion is getting higher in the sky at the moment, so this is an early non HDR edit, more data will hopefully be added to this over summer. 135mm Sigma at f/2, D810A, 600 second subs, processed in APP and Photoshop.
Union Pacific SD40-2 “snoot” No. 3249 pulls a train of 100-ton iron ore hoppers through Spanish Fork, Utah the morning of Feb. 21, 1988. The OGVCM originated at Geneva Steel and will reload at Comstock on the Iron Mountain Branch west of Cedar City, Utah.
The Orion Nebula can be seen with the naked eye in dark skies and is located in the belt of the Orion constellation.

I can always find Orion when I look up and it's above the horizon. Since the dawn of man, we have looked up at the sky at night and found patterns, whether they're there or not.
Darwin Deez has a great song about this, "Constellations". (He uses our tendency to assign connections to things that aren't connected as a metaphor for difficulty humans have connecting with each other.)
[Verse 1]
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
There’s a million little lights
When the sky turns black tonight
Are there patterns in our skies?
Are patterns only in our eyes?
[Chorus]
Or is a constellation just a constellation?
Is a constellation just a consolation?
[Verse 2]
Wrinkle, wrinkle, little scar
Count the freckles on my arm
If freckles don’t mean anything
Does anything mean anything?
[Chorus]
Or is a constellation just a constellation?
Is a constellation just a consolation?
[Bridge]
We are twinkling stars
Resurrected
Just like twinkling stars
We seem connected
But I know
[Chorus]
That a constellation is just a constellation
Constellation is just a consolation
Constellation is just a consolation
There's a great video for the song at www.youtube.com/watch?v=37sKI7d7-xA

First Orion and first interaction with Pixinsight, this programme is a whole new level!
Shooting in -12 degreec C didn't turn out to be easy, though clear sky and long nights are a big opportunity for good shots.

Thank you all for visits, faves and comments.
An ore wagon at Bodie, California. Bodie is a former gold mining town east of the Sierra Nevada mountain range and north of Mono Lake. It once had a population of about 10,000. Only about 5 percent of the town remains. It became a California State Historic Park in 1962 and is maintained in a state of "arrested decay".
If you see closely at the stars in Orion's Belt this is what they look like
Well at least for me
A guy pulling a heart
How cool isn't that
Love is in the air :D
I obviously had a nice night walk in the moonshine this evening, except for Aiko pulling the leash every time I should shoot
No wonder there is a man in the moon, lol
