Last night I was able to set up my star tracker and mount up my camera to capture the Orion Nebula. This is the first time I have even attempted something like this. Before I have only used my tracker for wide landscape shots.

The three stars on the left are Orion's belt. The Nebula is in the middle of Orion's scabbard. The nebula is estimated to be 24 light years across. It has a mass of about 2,000 times that of the Sun.

You can actually see Orion's nebula with the naked eye, that is why the scabbard looks fuzzy. You can also see this with just a pair of binoculars, this image was taken at 200 mm, so not too much zoom.

Unicoi State Park & Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and spacious. We had view of the woods. Large windows.However, no microwave in the room, you need to walk to where the ice/ vending machine is to warm anything. Only one chair by the table, 2 cant eat their sandwich together. We are in the 2 queen bed room, white covers, afriad to put unoack other suitcase in bed, might stain the cover! Ample parking, a little walk where your building is. Breaksfast buffet is reasonably priced with lots of selection.There is an Italian restaurant and Tavern with good selection in menu. Hiking trails there, zip lining and a short drive to main street in Helen. Quiet and relaxing, away from the noise."

Alpine Crest Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We loved everything about this location. It could use a larger TV downstairs, hotels don't have 19" tv anymore. There is a steep hill to walk down to take the path to downtown, not advisable for seniors. But you can park at the bottom by the path of you don't want to walk up the very steep hill. We would definitely stay here again. It had everything for a perfect weekend away"
