Good Old Orion

Took this image of Orion last night which won't be around for too much longer this year. I used my old Japanese Vivitar 28mm F2.5 lens I've had for many years which is exceptionally smooth and well made. I coupled it to my 400D and in turn mounted it on my Tak Sky Patrol. Exposure was one minute, 100 ISO @ F4. I thought it turned out quite well considering the hurried set up. The moon was behind the pine tree which gave a nice soft glow at the bottom of the picture.
