Orion Nebula @100% - a photo on Flickriver

Orion Nebula @100%

            Canon 6D (unmodded) with the EF 200mm ƒ2.8 lens mounted on a 2X extender. Tracked using an iOptron Skytracker.

Had the best polar alignment I've ever had so far with the tracker, and using the darkest skies (Warkworth Satellite Station) that we could work with. The moon was up and there was a lot of thin cloud around, but still managed to do ok.

20 x 30 second exposures
20 x dark frames
ƒ6.3
3200 ISO
Stacked in Nebulosity, edited in Photoshop

Final cropped image is 3493x2381px

Taken in: New Zealand / Auckland Region / Hepburn Creek (show map)

Taken on: January 7, 2015
