Embodiments that relate to displaying an image via a display device worn on a head of a user are disclosed. In one example embodiment, an image is displayed at an initial registration position with respect to a user's eye. Composite motion data is received from one or more sensors, with the composite motion data comprising a head motion component and a relative motion component which is relative motion between the head and the display device. The composite motion data is filtered to remove the head motion component and yield the relative motion component. Using the relative motion component, the initial registration position of the image is adjusted to an adjusted registration position that compensates for the relative motion component. The image is then displayed at the adjusted registration position.
