See what you can miss if you over process..! I thought it was grainy, but then rubbed my eyes and looked again!
Cranked the saturation level and tweaked the histogram and came up with this...lol...

Yes it is amazing what these cameras actually record. Last season I did M42 and was using 8 sec (ISO1600) exposures for the trapezium section. Just for fun, I took the 8 sec stack and over-stretched it. Here is the result. Yes drastically overstretched, but the faint stuff has still been recorded with 8 sec exposures. And here is the final image. 11x3min, 4x30sec and 6x8sec
