M42 - my first astrophoto ever!!
Hi all,
Yes I know it's another M42 picture but I'm pretty proud of this one. This is my first ever image. This was taken from my bortle 6 front yard with no filters.
Details:
Telescope - SW Esprit 100
Primary camera - ZWO ASI294
Guide camera - ZWO ASI120mm mini
Mount - SW AZEQ6
Acquisition/guiding software - KStars/EKOS
Light - 19 x 300sec - total integration 1.6 hrs
Darks - 50
Bias - 50
Flats - 50
Stacking - DSS
Post-processing - Startools 1.5
Please feel free to comment. I can already see things to improve (blown out core, bloated stars, noise). I know I still have a lot to learn but I'm encouraged by what I managed to get.
Rene
