M42 my way..

[xelasnave]

Well I can not do the color filter thing or the HA thing because I have found my focuser wont go in far enough...no matter I am happy with how far the gear takes me so far.

I have many shots to process..having got some 9 minute runs at 100 iso 200 iso and 400 iso...

But here is some of the early processing of combinations of the data I have.
Hope you enjoy the color impressions.

Excellent photography Alex :) I really love the extent to which the nebulosity protrudes. Very nice indeed!

Cheers

Thank you for the encouragement Chris.. I had hoped to have better but all my work seems to have some problem..the stacks are horrible...
I do have a 61 x 30 sec stack done but I have lost it ..I can not recall where I placed it on the HD... I called it something I would not forget and put it in a folder I would instantly recognise but... well I will look again tomorrow.

Great image alex, it's very detailed.

I think you've done a great job, hope you find the lost stack.

Cheers

Alex, the 1st one looks like it's on fire!!! :thumbsup:

I like the first one - the second looks over-processed a bit to me.....

[xelasnave]

Thank you Ric and thank you Ken... I will look tomorrow..I an tired and grumpy as if you could not guess...
My excuse is ...er dam it ...no excuses that the way it is with me...
The more color the better I dont care if it looks the way it is or not..
Good night

Nice processing too, to keep the inner detail and the outer areas.

Thank you Lee..thats my trip.. everything I do is overprocessed..my life is over processed, my food is over processed, my paper work is over processed....

I love seeing these objects the way they would be if they were on Star Trek...or on a Tshirt.

Dam being subtle I want to make a statement ... a bold colerful statement.

I wear black exclusively so I crave color someplace... and allow a little color in my art.

I must go.. sleep deprivation is starting to kick in..seeing things that should not be there... saying things that should not be said etc etc ...good night.

Thank you Scott I try for detail above all....color is secondary.
Good night I must go to bed or fall flat right here...bye bye
