Here's the Orion Region shot.  Please, let me know if you find any
problems with the digital processing.  This shot was taken 2/9/2005.
The transparency was very good.  It was a "test" shot after I
completed all my Comet Machholz images.  The wind was blowing like
crazy.  Since I didn't have perfect polar alignment, there is some
very slight rotation in the corners.  It just amazes me how Tony
Hallas can bring out so much detail from a slide.  I can't wait
until next year to take an E200 and 400F combination.  I have such a
dark sky I probably could have gone 45 minutes or longer with this
shot.  I have included three resolutions:

Low resolution:

Medium resolution:

http://www.northwest-landscapes.com/html/deepsky/orion_region2.html

High resolution:

This was truly a surprise shot.  I didn't realize by looking at the
shot, I had captured so much nebulosity.  Granted, it can't compete
against a CCD, but it still turned our surprising well.

I hope you enjoy,

Wade
