Description

My HaRGB version of this wide field vista of Orion the Hunter. I've been wanting to capture this area for a while and the ASI6200/200mm lens combination provides a great field of view for the job. There are many popular targets captured here including M78, the Flame Nebula, the Horsehead, Running Man and M42 - the Great Orion Nebula. Like all projects, more data in Ha would have been nice as would the capture of OIII and SII but the weather was not kind enough this season. It looks like that will be a good project for next summer.
