@Amir Khalid: Here’s a pic of the Orion Nebula to keep you happy Amir. I was testing out my iPolar sighting camera for my sky tracker week before last and this in one of the test pics.

I’m used to a more up-tempo version of “Oil In My Lamp” but found this quite pleasantly mellow.

@J R in WV: Thanks.
@opiejeanne: It’s in Orion. If you look at the 3 stars in Orion’s belt and look below you’ll see Orion’s sword. The nebula is in the sword and is visible(meaning you can notice the nebuluosity) to the naked eye even in light polluted skies on a clear moonless night.
