M42 Trapezium Early Days
Inspired by Alex's words I thought I'd post one of my first DSO captures. Taken with a 12 inch Dob and QHY5L-II Mono. Three second video processed in Autostakkert and GIMP. I stacked video frames as opposed to multiple exposures because at the time I didn't know how to use Deep Sky Stacker. The artefacts are from dropped frames because the old laptop I used to record with wasn't powerful enough.
