Orion Or POT

Orion Or POT
We loose Orion very fast from our skies so this is next months target . This was shot first night out with the tracker but it sits over the city light plume. next month this is due east out of city lights so I want to try my 150-600 lens. Remember past the equator it is no longer Orion but the "Pot" as its up side down. 200mm lens. From top to bottom

Horse head nebula my personal fav.
Flame nebula At the bottom.
I hope I can get a still night no wind to bring these to life I am following Ko here. I only wish I lived in the northern hemisphere to set up the tracker properly.

thanks Herb one of the best know and very easily to pick out I just hope to get a good chance with the long lens to do all 4 of them as singles. I completely forgot about this photo from the very first night. you may be are right I would not get as dark a sky with out a lot of effort this is just off the main road. it is enjoyable to see the images finally come to life I think that 200 shot is a reality and will allow for more detail.
