Just stepping into this field. For the users to get the grasp of the size and scale of the objects populating our night (and day) skies, I take attention to keep the same scale (a field of view of about 41.2x27.5 arcminutes) and start by introducing the most familiar objects.
Image of Orion Nebula (Messier M42) and the Running Man Nebula (NGC1977, left), two diffuse nebulas south of the Orion's belt in the constellation of Orion. 45minutes of exposure through a professional telescope.
