Orion Last Night

[Hagar]

A couple of single images taken lastnight using my ED80 and 350D. Will have to get guiding up and running correctly and try some longer images and image stacking.

good start with the work - drift a problem but I am sure you will get on top of that in due course

I was realy happy with these images even the drift wasn't too bad considering Orion neb was a 285sec exposure and the Horsehead was a 360sec exposure. Guiding still needs some work although I am using a canon zoom lens with my DSI attached as a guide scope.
I will keep trying.

Good effort Doug.

For a single image of the Great Nebula, you have picked up a lot of detail, the Horsehead is notoriously difficult to image at the best of times.

When you start stacking a few images together you will bring out a lot more detail. Keep at it. :thumbsup:

Cheers
