Uhhh...

Not the same at all...  You are talking composition!  Try and move behind
M42 to get a different background...  :)

I good image take time effort, knowledge, a touch of luck, and the ability
to know exactly what you are going for before hand, not just a few bucks...

decent astro-image.  I think it takes artistic talent, a good eye, a lot of
experience, and a big dose of "ass kung fu" to make a world-class image.  A
case in point:  Last spring I went with a friend (a noted photographer) to
photograph the California poppies near Lancaster.  He let me use his 4X5
field camera and I took a dozen photographs.  All of my images were well
focused and technically sound, but compared to his work they were really
quite mediocre.  Same day, same camera, same subject but oh, what a
difference the photographer makes. <g>
