Hi Guys,
with this first post I want to introduce my self. I´m Robert and member of the
Allgäuer Volkssternwarte Ottobeuren. I´m 33 years old, married and interested in astronomy since 1999.
I´m doing astrophotography since two years. So I would say I´m still a beginner.
Last sunday I was finally able to get lights from the Orionregion with M42 and B33.
I took a modified Canon 20D. Exposertimes were 3x10min, 5x6min, 3x3min and 1x60s. Processed with fitswork and Photoshop.

I did it with the Canon 70-200 4.0 L USM at 135mm with f5.6.
I hope you like it and please don´t be shy to give me your comments, critics and proposals.
During the shoot I took my own 40d and made a singleframed shot with the observatory and Orion getting down behind it.
So I made a collage with all the images of the orion region I ever took:

Hope you enjoy this as well.

website marked with "neu".
many greetings and always the right light,
