Nice work Ian. Really like the contrast of stars, nebulae, dust and glob. This is one of the targets I plan on shooting next week at Bretti. Jason

That looks more like an FSQ106ED and an expensive astro CCD shot.
Wonderful.

Greg.
I like this little Orion triplet, ed80t, although I have to admit that its original focuser was not so great, so after replacing it with more famous brand it has become a really nice piece of gear.
I also like 60Da, and it’s a pity that Canon decided to discontinue manufacturing of this camera ...

Really like the rich colour, especially the blue.
Cheers,

What's not to like? Nice looking stars and dust and the reflection nebulosity stands out well. It seems a little too reddish on my monitor though but a great effort just the same.
Cheers

Perhaps the size-cutting engine treated it harshly, how about this higher res version:
