Orion Nebula (M42 and M43). Despite the First Quarter Moon illuminating the background sky, this stunning view captures the Orion Nebula — with larger M43 at center and smaller M42 sitting just to its upper left — as well as the so-called Running Man Nebula (NGC 1975), which is visible near the top. The colorful shot was created by blending multiple sets of long exposures captured through a 4-inch refractor using an unmodified Nikon D750 at ISO 200.
