Description

A business trip to the Biosphere in Arizona (about 25 miles north of Tucson) allowed me to squeeze in some star gazing under Arizona skies and to check out my mobile setup. So among others I gave Orion a try, still one of the most promising very wide field targets.  Revision A is the full field (with a full frame sensor and a 135mm Samyang lens stepped down to 2.8), Revisions B and C are zoom ins into M42 and the famous horse head nebula, respectively.

Data were taken on March 28 and 29.
