I had thought this would be the part between M42 and the Running Man; well at least I had hoped it would be. Still a nice section fo the nebula.

Beautiful shot Mike.

I like the name of the album too - "The Ultimate Collection!". Now there'll be Sidonio's and ULTIMATE Sidonios.... :question:

[strongmanmike]

Yes its a 90% res crop of a small section at the bottom right of the main nebula. You can see where it came from in this 40% size image (1.2meg): http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/120372333/original

Hi Michael,

Lovely image. I can see a person throwing a Discus or a punch in all that red. His head is the top darker part coming down to an outstretched arm, down past his chest,to his waist, and on down to his legs, one of which is bent back and up as though he is running or lunging.

Just my thoughts on veiwing this.

Cheers Mate,
Duncan:thumbsup:

[strongmanmike]

More like Chew Backa
Aaaarrrwwwggg...arrrgggwww! :tasdevil:

Lots of people miss info associated with images, strangely they often miss the info under the image (then ask somthing about that which is clearly written there :rolleyes:) or don't bother clicking on the image to see the larger or other versions...always in such a hurry, I dunno... never mind.

Guess it's like savouring a nice beer...or just sculling it :drink: :D

Mike

[strongmanmike]

Hmmm... I. usually good at this buuuut :question:

I can deffinitely see the wizzard or magician but the discu thrower :confuse3:

MIke

[duncan]

Yeah OK i'll go with a magician. I only just crawled outta bed, to much wind rain and cloud up here in Weipa for anything else,LOL.

Cheers Michael,

Duncan:lol:

Love the page just dedicated to Orion M42-43. Gives one such a different prospective compared to the usual framing of the whole thing!
:thumbsup:
Actually would make a interesting poster!

[TheDecepticon]

That looks pretty good. A lot of amazing structure around Orion for sure.:)

[strongmanmike]

Cheers Gary, which image are you refering to?
