Orion (nebula)!

I'm (beginning) to get the hang of photographing stars.
Highest ISO available (1600 on our Pentax K10)
Largest aperture (f4 on the 18/45 kit lens)
15 seconds on the shutter is actually a little too long, but it's cold out there, and I can't see anything in the viewfinder, and not much in the display either.
Oh and clear sky's!
Tonight looks good to the naked eye, but a long exposure shows up plenty of thin cloud.
Just tweaked the contrast and black level a bit to sort that out and I've decided you can look too.
