M42 OIII work in progress

Hi,

Since forecast says rain for the next week, I thought I would post this here whilst I wait for clear skies.

Taken with Orion ED80, unmodded Canon 400D prime focus on an EQ6, with Thousand Oaks 2" OIII filter, over three nights in the last two weeks.

59 x 10min ISO 400 (~10 hrs)
Will take shorter exposures for the core some time later.

I hope to add colour data during this new moon, to make an OIIIRGB. No where near as good as Ha, but for an unmodded dslr, OIII is the only thing I can do during full moon.

Cheers
George
