Hi All,

The weather did not cooperate here in southern California for imaging in January so I am posting my December 2009 images.

Orion Nebula wide field - http://astrophoto.net/m42.html

Messier 67 - http://astrophoto.net/m67.html

Messier 38 and 36 - http://astrophoto.net/m38.html

I also have uploaded pages with high resolution crops taken from the Orion Nebula wide field shot:

Messier 42 and 43 - http://astrophoto.net/m42_core.html

NGC 1977 - http://astrophoto.net/ngc1977.htm

All images are linked through my home page - http://astrophoto.net

Costructive criticism and comments welcome.
