I have invited Astronomers and Astrophotographers to showcase their beautiful photographs of my stars. During the 2021 winter stargazing season I have seen so many fabulous pictures of my Constellation that I am curating a special Online Collection – featuring each Astronomer and their chosen Orion picture. The Pleiades – those lovely Seven Sisters – also welcome!
Thanks to all!
My tree and the mighty #Orion – what a beautiful night sky

Orion Nebula: 60 x 150s + 30 x 30s taken Fall of 2020 from Providence, RI.

Orion is my favorite nebula – camera zwo 294mm pro newton ts photon 150/600 Antlia Ha 3.5nm filter cem 70 mount at my place under bortle 6.
One of my first attempts at capturing the Great Orion Nebula. Used a Celestron Evolution C8 EdgeHD with Hyperstar V4, ASI533MC Pro and ASIAIR Pro! 60 x 10 sec subs.
The Great nebula (M42) from Orion. About 25 minutes of exposure using WO Zenithstar 61 and Nikon Z6.
A unique perspective of a familiar star – Betelgeuse. After stabilising, stacking, cropping & filtering 2500+ frames, it turned out like this. Betelgeuse is a giant reddish ball of gas on fire, c640 light years away. Looks quite pretty for a mobile phone through an 8″ scope! 2/4.
I always love a ‘thru the scope’ view!
Purple Rain
My first ever tracked Astro Photo. 30 mins in Mid Jan.
Four panel mosaic of M42 shot from Buckfast, Devon. The Great Orion Nebula is never not beautiful in my opinion.
The mighty @warrior_orion Nebula – how it started; how it’s going. I’m getting happy with this now. Happier, anyway.
Orion in the winter sky from Isle of Mull, darkest place with the brightest stars.
This is 2 hours 51 minutes of 2 minute exposures with a colour camera. A moonless night too which is rare.
From B4 skies in Tasmania, Australia. 98x30sec subs.
M42 Total exposure 45 minutes. HaRGBOIIISII.
Orion´s Belt – Image by Panagiotis Xipteras.
This week’s sketch is M42 and M43 the Orion Nebula in the constellation Orion. Had a nice wide-field view of this region of Orion’s sword with my 6″ Newtonian and 32 mm eyepiece.
Check out the video for more info and time lapse of the sketch at the eyepiece:
