A quick M42 in LHaRGB

With the clouds rolling in and covering my main subject I took a quick test-round of M42 just before taking the flats. Clouds covered the whole sky during Ha exposures, but I got three of them anyway. I didn't even have time to frame the subject properly, but this quick jab at this marvellous and hard to properly image target proved fruitful.

 

Taken with SXVR-H18, C8+reducer, Baader LRGB and narrowband filter-set in Atik EFW2 9x1.25" filterwheel. 5x15s LRGB each, 3x30s Ha.
