[AZ-Observing] Re: Faint nebulosities surrounding M42

Jon, beautiful shot!  Great job.  I tried shooting it also with my E210 and
my ST8E.  I was taking 120 sec. exposures and got so much bleeding from the
bright stars (which most of them are) that I can't even use it.  How long
exposures did you use to stack and is your 1100 an anti-blooming camera?  My
ST8E is not an anti-blooming.  I could only run 15 sec. without getting
blooming that would wipe out the whole picture, but if I only run 15 sec. I
get way to much noise to use them.

Thanks,
Frank Martin

Hello fellow Arizona stargazers,
This is a photo of the Orion Nebula I took out at Vekol the night of
December 4th/5th.  My goal for this picture was to concentrate on bringing
out the faint nebulosities that surround the nebula.  I got a hint of them
with last year's picture and I've been waiting a year to have another go at
it and see what I found.

Happy Holidays,
