Yes - the new pic gave me a good idea about Alnitak.
I re-processed my mosaic of Orion with some 1x1 & 2x2
subframes taken at much shorter exposure layered in & sure enough
the second star came out.
There was a bonus in that NGC 2023 finally appeared correctly.
It's only small data & noisy compared to Paul's but it's on my flickr photos.
Paul has done well.

cheers
Allan
