Orion's belt and sword

Posted on 13:34 by Unknown

Orion nebula m42 photo


... Moscow variant. Strong light pollution of the city causes bright sky at long exposured shots. For this picture i use 67 RAW shots, aligned with Hugin's "align_image_stack" utility and averaged. This allows to get Orion nebula's natural color, but it's size and details still unacceptable. Next time i'll try capturing this nebula with better camera settings and bigger series of source shots. Star colors looks better in original resolution: 1567x2093.

I wrote small post about averaging stack of shots here: english / russian.
