Orion shot-finally got the witchhead

I took this shot at Wiruna a few weeks back and didn't really think much of it. I did manage to capture the witchhead nebula though (faintly).

Hi John,
Nice shot. You have Barnard's loop just starting to show too.
Worth another go with as much time as you can get.
Cheers, Ross...
