Astrophotography by Eddie Guscott |
| Orion |
|
Orion (the Hunter), home to (probably) the most famous nebula in the sky, M42 the Great Orion Nebula, and many other interesting deep sky objects - the Lambda Orionis Nebula, Barnards Loop & the nebulosity surrounding B33. |

| Date/Location: | Mt. Teide, Tenerife, Canary Islands (elev. 7700ft) / October 2003 | |
| Equipment: | Vixen GP Photoguider mount / Zuiko 50mm F1.8 lens @ F4 | |
| Camera/Exposure: | Olympus OM1 35mm camera / E200 slide film / 2 x 20 min exposures | |
| Processing: | Scanned with Minolta D'Image Scan Duall II @ 2700dpi, Aligned with Registar, post processed with Photoshop 7 | |
| Notes: | This was shot as Orion had just cleared the walls of the caldera - meaning it was at an altitude of only about 15 degrees above the local horizon - the sky was so transparent that there was no visible atmospheric extinction |
