Yeah, and I remember when light pollution wasn't so bad you couldn't see
the stars at all if you lived in a city or even a small town.

Ah Christmas upon us once more (although the local supermarket thinks that
means the end of September...). Nice photo.

The Orion image makes me jealous, as the light pollution around a major city
where I am makes it almost impossible. Next time I'm in rural Scotland I'll
have a go, assuming it doesn't do the usual heaving down with rain.

After Mark's post today, I found it a pleasant coincidence that with the 
K-1 the FA77 is the perfect focal length for photographing all of Orion. 
 I was also pleased to see that the Orion Nebula is actually 
recognizable even with the 77, I'm going to have to try with a longer 
lens.  If someone has the 150-450, I'd love to see what you could with 
that on the Orion Nebula and Andromeda.
