Astrophotography

Jeff. This is a great wide field image. I think you should try to get this published in one of the magazines. It also might be easier to get published in the Reflection Magazine.

I managed to get a series of exposures last night of the Orion complex, including the Flame, Horsehead, and Great Orion Nebula in narrow band. The colors are mapped Ha=Red, SII=Grn, OIII=Blue. Image composed of 10x300sec Ha, 5x300 sec SII & OIII. Shot with SB8300M STF, & Canon 200mm f2.8 lens, mounted on Losmandi G11, with Gemini II computer. Captured with Nebulosity 4. Tracking with Orion mini-tracking scope and PHD 2. Processed with Nebulosity 4 & Adobe Lightroom 5.

 This is something you don't often see, and you did an outstanding job capturing that entire region.  Looks like a tiny satellite cut right through the middle.
