M42 and NGC 1977 from Snake Valley

OKay not 100% happy with the data I pulled out of Snake Valley, but it really was my first time under dark skies doing serious imaging. I have learnt quite a bit from this exercise, and am eager to do better. Still I think its a reasonable image. 15 x 5sec, 15 x 30sec, 15 x 60sec, 15 x 180sec, 5 x 300sec 1 x 600sec. Had a bit of trouble stacking as my other thread reports. I managed to get some data though out of the 180sec, 300 sec and 600sec data. Taken with a Canon 400D unmodified, through an 80mm F5.7 refractor
