Question First M42 - Still Learning NINA

Imaging under a full moon was an 'experience' but in the name of science (or something ), I was determined to try a few NINA things like filter offsets and a multi-target sesh. NINA worked well but my 47 Tuc and Horsey will never be seen in public; the Antlia RGB Ultra filter was no match for the full moon which left awkward gradients that I couldn't fix, yech Buuuuut my quick'n'dirty M42 was kinda semi-respectable for about 50 mins of 60s subs.

SW120ED, ASI294MC, Antlia Ha-Oiii filter. Stacked in APP (with mild drizzle) and processed in PI: DBE>SPCC>BX>NX>SX>GHS (nebula & stars done separately)>HDRMT>LHE>curves/colours/sat>background enhance>combine neb & stars in pixelmath>Photoshop for tonal adjustments.

Thanks for looking. Alex
