Another M42

[AndyM]

Another pic from 25th - at last Orion has emerged at a reasonable hour from behind the huge Beech tree in our garden!

(click to enlarge)

As usual, taken at prime focus with 450D @ ISO 800 on a SW ED80.

10 frames of 3 minutes and one of 20 seconds for the Trapezium, then combined in Paintshop.

Thanks for the comments everyone. It took me ages to process this one to get the colours to my liking and getting the fainter detail to show up.
