Visibility V / V
Clear weather fell on a moonless night and I shot Orion with a 135mm lens. The star pattern familiar from here in Australia can be seen upside down in the northern sky. Thanks to the really dark shooting location (Bortle 2), a lot of deep sky objects were caught in the picture. The most famous are probably the Horse's Head Nebula, the Orion Nebula and the Witch's Nebula.
