Orion’s Belt and Clouds

Dunmore, Pennsylvania, USA | January 2025

Constellation Orion, Orion’s Belt, Messier 42, Rigel

Tried something different with this image. Not only am I introducing astrophotography into my photography repertoire, but for this specific image, I included clouds. I liked the way the clouds looked over Orion’s belt, and wanted to create something with both. I didn’t want to only capture the objects, I wanted to make art with them.
