rising the orion

A wonderful mountain are located in near our town.
There is a mountain range called North Japan Alps,especially Mt.Tateyama(3090m in elevation)

I went to the Murodou(2450m the 8th station of Mt.Tateyama)by bus.And I carried the heavy equatorial mount on my back to the hut.
Because, I wanted to take a photo better than Orion in 2003.

However, thin clouds have spread from midnight.I am going to challenge once again.

Terrific shot. Great color in Betelgeuse and the cloud in the Orion Nebula.
