This will be my last image of the Orion Nebula for the 2018-19 season, it's now disappearing behind nearby houses and every night it gets a little further west and the sky gets a little brighter. I decided to concentrate on this one object over a period of 5 nights rather than a single night and it has paid off in getting a much smoother image.
