Great to see some more new data coming tho isn’t it!!!  |
Thanks Dave,
Yeh I missed M42 last year for one reason or another, nice to get started with some new data on it.
Exposed the trap a little bit without any short subs and layering, just used an AutoDev stretch with ROI in ST and HDR with Tame function. A bit more time on it would have exposed it more.
Certainly a great night, really stable and stars above 35deg were pin points no scintillating (even with the moon nearly full , I could see more stars than normal under Sydney’s crappy LP
A short but very satisfying session
Cheers
Martin
