Orion Nebula (M42) – top right (Orion's sword). Also shown just to the right of the very bright star closest to the bottom of the photo (part of Orion’s belt – Alnitak) you can just make out the horsehead emission nebula (dark nebula in the purple/red area – an area of star formation - a stellar nursery).
