M42 - revisited

[Gina]

After spending a few hours on the Cygnus Loop until the view was obscured, I turned my attention to Orion and M42 which had just risen in the east and still very low at the end of the run. This is 56 lights of a mix of 30 and 60 seconds at ISO 3200 on my 1100D and cooled to 0C and stacked in DSS with 93 darks, 38 flats and 35 bias frames. Processed in PS. Cropped and very slightly reduced in size. Saved in PNG format. No guiding.

Thought this looked a bit too red once uploaded so here's a slight re-process :-
