M42 And the running man HaRGB

[Jannis]

I keep "upgrading" my older pics and it actually turns out better then i thought it would...

I first captured Orion RGB on the 7.3.2014 with the moon really close by (18x150sec@ISO200).
Later that year i added the running man with RGB data from 26.12.2014 (11x120sec@ISO800), and the pic instantly looked "more complete".

Then here a couple of weeks ago i was able to gather 20 min of Ha data (10x120sec@ISO3200]. Not nearly enough with my unmodded 550D, but helped a bit still.
It's my first attempt in HaRGB, so i'm quite pleased with.

Edit: First is HaRGB, 2nd is the old RGB.

Very nice images, I prefer the first to the second. I think they could be improved by making the background a touch less dark. They have a slightly "clipped" look about them.

Very nice image. Lovely detail and colours.

Thanks.

 

The first is the HaRGB, the 2nd is the standard RGB. Forgot to mention, sorry.
