M42 attempt

The data was captured in Sydney because I am getting no action here.
I forgot that I had it ...in fact I cant remember much about it at all.

Would have 30 second shots at 1600 I think and I cant remeber how many but given I have less than an hour down there and this and that its probably only about 30 minutes worth... maybe had darks I just dont recall.

make a note..take notes and develop some sort of sytem to manage this stuff. It is amazing how the captures pile up and all of a sudden you forget what has gone on...well at least for me.

Thru the little 80 mm and cropped about 50% cause of problems around the edge..the center is blown out I know.

No excuses it is what it is.

It has been rainig non stop here so I tried it in Pixinsite but as its a trial I dont think I can present that version and this one was done in gimp very basic processing by someone who does not have a clue...so if a mug like me can produce something I hope that offers encouragement to other beginers.

The pixisite was similar but that is because I am in the very early stages of working out that program.

It is what it is.
