Orion: Taken in Blessington.

Just downloaded it from the camera, blessington is excellent for dark skies. It's the first photo that has come out using my camera. Am about to Mod my Neximage so hopefully put some others up soon.

I have a lot of catching up to do looking at some of the images here!

Nice shot there Gary.

Very atmospheric!!

That's a beaut Gary, the trees really frame the constellation perfectly.

Who ever (Moderator) edited that post, it's not coming up now! I can't fix it right now either, when I try, I'm being asked about downloading a file from the image location...

Thanks, I thought you might like it.

On the image, Yes I think you may have to download, Im using picasaweb.google.com to display the pics. Will have to setup a Flickr a/c.

Cheers,
Gary.

Just right click on the broken image link and select 'View Image' and it should load up in PaintShopPro or whatever picture editor you have.
