Finally captured the Orion Nebula without that awful star trailing
After three months of practicing with a barn door tracker, my 90-second exposures from last night are actually round points of light instead of streaks. Has anyone else made a similar jump in quality with a basic setup?

Congrats on the progress, that's a huge win. Just a small thing, the Orion Nebula is a deep sky object, so the term is "tracking error" not "star trailing." Star trailing is what you get on untracked shots of the actual stars. The feeling when it finally clicks is amazing.
