M42 Orion with Trap and plenty of Layered Mask

[EzyStyles]

Took plenty of different exposure times last night and did 5 separate layers then composed all together in paintshop. Finally did one which you can see the trapizium in Orion :) not sure if this is my best pic im stuck. Love my DSI!

Hi EzyStyles,

Top job on the processing. M42 looks so much better without a blown out core. Well done.

Cheers,
Brad

Thanks Brad. Was a really tough one when layering the masks. One reason why i had to take 6 sets of stacked images with 5 layers.

Absolutely stunning - a lot of effort has gone into that!:thumbsup:

I don't know whether that's your best image either - you've been coming up with so many good ones.
