This is my very first (and I mean that literally) photo of a deep space object (something not in our solar system) taken through a telescope.
It's the Orion Nebula (M42/NGC1976). Seeing as my scope isn't aligned at the least - I'm pretty impressed. Just as luck would have it - there's a meteor streaking by as well!
Equipment: Canon 300D, 8 Inch Newtonian
Exposure: 30 seconds, ISO 1600
The picture was actually horribly overexposed (there's a full moon out) so I had to touch it up a bit.
