Playing with M42

[allan gould]

I have been unable to get to use my equipment for some time and so I had a play with stitching together a 4 panel mosaic of M42 and NGC1977 and combining this with a Narrow Band image of M42 that I had taken quite some time ago and not been able to process to my liking. But after some reading I thought I would give it another go and produce something different for myself.
Comments welcomed as usual

That looks great Al, well done.

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

It certainly is different Al.
I'm not used to the colours I reckon.

not wrong there nettie

you have certainly been experimenting Allan, to be honest it looks like a touched up photo from the 40's

Some like it and some don't.
I might do a Sidonio on it, then Mike will approve.

Very artistic Allan. The stitch worked well too.

Looks very nice to me, Allan!

It's good to see something a bit different from the usual, Allan!

I've tried a heap of PS techniques and other programs but generally found them lacking but the Microsoft one worked a real treat and balanced each frame well so I was quite pleased.

Thanks Laurie and Rick. Just something to do in Brisbane with the rotten clouds we have been having lately which seem to go on forever.
