Orion

Posted by njsux (Shrewsbury, NJ, United States) on 26 February 2008 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

Orion (the Hunter) setting behind the trees across the street from my house. Orion is spectacular all winter long of course, but its setting in the evening like this is an annual reminder that spring is just around the corner. Astrophotography is extremely difficult in light-polluted New Jersey - this is about as good as I can do.

I'm on PBase, too: http://www.pbase.com/njsux.
