M42 - Orion

46 x 30sec images

 

My first foray into using a dedicated astro camera.

 

Images were taken on the first opportunity of a cloud free night (or close to it) but there was however, a full moon.

I suspect the full moon took away some of the finer details and the blues/purples. Time will tell.

 

These image files (FITS) were stacked with DeepSkyStacker and then edited in Adobe Photoshop.
