Welcome aboard Tom!

That's a stunning image! I just love seeing images with such large fields of view. Also, the detail in the nebula is great .... you can almost see the gas moving!

Hi Tom,
Thats a great yet unusual view of the sword of orion, its great to get such a wide field of view yet get great detail.
I think the first image is a tiny bit soft, yet the second image looks a tiny bit grainy, you just cant please everyone :wink: :lol:

Hi Woody,

If I ever get some clear skies in windter this is one of the targets on my list. What focal length was this taken at?

Great image!

Later,

Jed.
