Great image Paul. Lots of delicate detail. I like the colour--vibrant but not overdone. The days of the 1hour (or even 5 hour) M42 are well and truly over.

showing me stuff I have never seen before-I like the velvety chocolate comment-my thoughts too. Looks like you could step out onto the dust clouds !
Totally magnificent

Great work
I like it .... I got my 200 newt for the first time in years last night to do some visual observing with a visiting friend from Texas and we had a look at the old Orion Nebula amongst other objects .... he was suitably impressed and would be amazed by your detailed image

Only 27.9 hours of Clear skies here in total for all of last year hehe.
Man you live in paradise.
Seriously nice Image Paul. I have only recently discovered those magnificent dust clouds in M42 and yours is the best I have seen.
Congrats

Paul,
I am not going to comment about the image, because everything has already been said. I am going just thanking you very much for sharing this beauty, a true master piece from the skies.
Best Regards,
Fernando

27.9 hours. The hidden treasures are often those revealed only by patience and persistence - delightful.
