Hi all. I am bored so I decided to take all my Orion data and combine it into a single image. This was data from two different nights, combined into this image. It is a lot deeper than either of my earlier posts. Let me know what you think.
Cheers,
Tyler

Simply outstanding, Tyler. Wonderful detail in the trapezium region, as well. Nicely done!

That is one of the best M42 shots I have seen, what did you use?

I like the reddish pink of M42 contrasted with the blue of the running man neb.

Greg.

Thats a great looking image. You really have applied the principle of practice make perfect. This is your best M42 posting yet. Is your DSLR modified?
