Another holiday snap (it's okay - there are only six and this is the last one I'm showing here, although there are more on Flickr if anyone's interested).
The Orion Nebula Messier 42 (and the 'head' on the end which is Messier 43) probably needs little introduction. Taken with a modified Canon 350D on a 200mm reflector - Orion was low to the south east with a lot of moisture in the atmosphere, hence the haloing round the bright stars. 20 each of 15s, 30s and 60s subs (the 60s taken on two different nights) integrated as three separate images then combined using PixInsight's HDR process. PP done in PixInsight with the final tweaks in PaintShop Pro.
To the left is part of the Running Man nebula.
