M42 in Orion Great Orion Nebula in Orion. This image shows most of the extent of the core of the nebula. I've been dying to image this nebula for years so I rushed this first opportunity to do so and therefore I used no filters on the image at all; however, I'm really pleased with the results.

Great Orion Nebula in Orion. This image shows most of the extent of the core of the nebula. I've been dying to image this nebula for years so I rushed this first opportunity to do so and therefore I used no filters on the image at all; however, I'm really pleased with the results.
