This morning while waiting for a job at work, 6am, i went outside to have a quick smoke and noticed Orion was rising ahead of the sun in the east.
I looked and could make out the glow of M42 clearly with the naked eye, it has been a few long months since i've seen this neb, and it was a buzz seeing it again.
I think i will be taking the binno's with me to work in the morning to get a visual dose of astro up and go to start the day, couldn't think of anything better
,
maybe the day off
