Flame to Orion


FlameToOrion

This relatively wide shot was captured with a 200mm camera lens to include multiple beautiful objects in the Orion constellation.  From left to right is the Flame Nebula, the Horsehead Nebula, the Running Man Nebula, and the Orion Nebula.  The background is actually just a small part of the molecular cloud around the Orion constellation.

Scope: Tamron 70-200 lens at 200mm, f/4
Mount: AP Mach1
Camera: QSI583
Exposure: H-a/LRGB, 2 hrs H-a, 1 hr LRGB


About Greg Marshall

I am a retired electronics engineer and after a few months of enjoying my leisure I began to miss doing product development. My astronomy hobby always needed new solutions to unique problems, so I decided that whenever I came up with a good solution I would try to make it available to others.
