M42: now with some H-alpha

I added some H-alpha to my recent M42 and I ended up with better color fidelity near the core and within the bubble. I thought I'd share it with you.

Another fine one for sure, crisper more defined colour really stands out

This is fantastic! The colours are vibrant - the dust is second to none! How much Ha was added (in minutes)?

Top shot. Will have to dig the old one to see the difference. I thought it was already perfect?

Amazing FOV Tom, that outer dust looks like your dam car could get stuck in it

Very nice Tom. Has to be the longest exposure of M42 I've seen and one of the best for detail and dust.

Well done. Thanks for sharing.
