Orion M42 with more integration

[Craig_]

I've finally gotten around to processing M42 again with the extra data I gathered before Christmas. This brings the total integration to circa 5 hours. Doubling from the original 2.5 hours has made a big difference to the SNR as well as the fainter dust around the nebula.

Hasnt it just... nebula covers the entire frame! Nice work.

Wow, that looks great Craig. Some clear skies would be nice right now to even have a look at Orion.

Beautiful colors, and you've done a great job bringing out the faint surrounds
