Hi,
I suppose I was inspired by Mike Sidonio's amazing Orion Nebula but also JJJ's image with fantastic dust lanes. I wanted to have a real go at this object and do the best I believe I could do. I have focussed on only Orion as I do not have a field flatener so if I got the running man as well my stars may have become egg shaped.
Taken with my W/O Flt 110 with QHY-9 mono at -20c. I have about 5 1/2 hours of Luminance (8 minutes each 1x1 binning) and 1hour 20 min of each RGB (4 min 2x2 binning). I then took 30x10 seconds of LRGB and then 30x30 seconds of LRGB everything with flats,darks and bias frames. I masked the 10s onto the 30s and then that onto the finished 8 minute colour job.
I am sure I will have another go at processing this so all comments more than welcome.
Mark
