Last year I posted an image of the Trapezium in the Orion Nebula taken with my 16" reflector and Nikon D810a camera.

It showed the four main stars A-D, together with the fainter E and F stars.

This year I have tried to improve upon that image.

Same telescope, this time paired with an ASI 6200 MC Pro

Stack of 21 x 0.5 sec at gain 304

Rubbish seeing and a moon in the sky.

Not sure how it is going to look as a forum image, but on the original TIFF I can just about make out all 10 stars from 'A' through to 'I' - just about !!!

Have included an annotated version. Hopefully I have identified all the stars correctly, but please let me know if I have got it wrong.

Thanks for looking
