Don't get me wrong, this was not a deliberate attempt to capture the HH, nor do I intend to do it again ant any time in the future. This was a tripod bulb exposure on film of a wide shot of Orion. I wonder if you could get similar results from a DSLR with a similar exposure time (And I'm guessing the exposure time for this would be under 2 minutes).

Okay, here is a more deliberate attempt at capturing the HH. Keep in mind the 'blueish' hue is a result of the film type and also being developed in a home colour dark room, also 20 years ago. I am determined not to alter these images. You can notice some scratches on the photo also.
