The Orion Nebula I took a picture of this about 2 years ago with a film camera and it is still on the blog. But this is a new picture I took with my astrophotography camera on 3-10-25.

The Flame and Horsehead nebulas It only took me two years before I got good enough to get a good picture of this. The problem is the horsehead nebula is very dim and the bright star above the flame nebula looks like a head light. So it took me a while to figure out the right camera settings so that I could do the processing needed to bring out the horsehead nebula without blowing out the left side of the picture because of that d... star.
