Glenden M42

Hello everyone, I travelled west away from the coast overnight with an observing friend to Glenden in central Queensland. Glenden is a small mining town with lovely dark skies; we had 5 hours of objects like 47 Tuc, NGC 253, M31 through a short focal sky watcher refractor, Saturn and M42. It was a wonderful night and well worth the effort. This is a photo of M42 from last night. Single image 24.5sec f/2.9 ISO 100 Afocal with 26mm EP and LX90.
