I am so sick of imaging m42 and will let it go this year, regardless of what i try I just can't seem to get it balanced.
Never mind there are plenty of other objects to have a look at.

Thanks Leon.
I know what you mean. Although of the relative overall brightness, M42 is actually one of the most difficult objects to image. I had a go at it a while back but my colours were way off but I was able to get a reasonable image out of it.
Keep at it but there's plenty of other objects to image.

Cheers Mark.
Funny you say that. I was actually going to image M42 instead.

Being a neighbour to the Orion it is definitely overlooked and forgotten about.
Hope it clears up for you.
