So finally had some clear skys for a while the other morning and I dragged my sorry butt out of bed and captured this. Working on stacking now (no long exposures with the T4i that morning, used the T6 for those [if you count 15sec as long]).
Particulars: T4i with Canon EF 50mm 1.8 STM on tripod in my driveway facing SSE at approximately 04:40 on Oct. 26, 2019.
Showing: Part of Orion constellation; Part of Lepus constellation; Great Nebula in Orion; Horsehead Nebula, Witch Head Nebula and more as listed at http://nova.astrometry.net/user_images/3170019#annotated

It's very nice.
But it almost requires a trained eye to pluck the contents in it.
That bugger Orion and his Nebula was what sucked me into this fun.
My first view of The Great Orion Nebula was through a spotting scope.
Then I tried all manner of ways to image the night skies. But I credit Orion's Nebula for my fascination of Nebulae.

Thanks, it's not the best shot for certain but it was a nice morning of imaging. I have another one or two I had some time to work on I hope hope to post in a bit.
I got in a couple hours more yesterday morning but haven't had the time to go through or stack any yet.
I've been trying to decide whether to have my T4i or T6 modded for astroscaping or pick up a T2i/T3i and have it modded and use the HD video feed for my captures.
Appreciate the feedback.
