M42 in Black and White

[Rustmonkey]

Thought 'd try this in black and white so the structure rather than the colour would be the main focus.

I love this Nebula.....not only is it easy to find but its always gives you a reward for your efforts

Great detail. You really managed to preserve the core.

Hi Rustmonkey, a great shot, it always looks different whenever you see this nebula, and this image proves that. Well done!

Thnx peeps....problem i find with colour is that its kinda subjective. i see so many wonderful versions of M42 but colours always seem to change. In B&W you get to concentrate on the beauty of the structure and not worry about whether the colours are right.

Did you shoot in black and white or shoot in colour then process in b&w afterwards?

What type of camera are you using for this image?

[Rustmonkey]

Shot in colour using a Canon 50d then processed into B&W using CS6
