M42 from Norway

[oernulfs (Ørnulf)]

10x15s, 15x60s, 10x300s, 5x600s.

Shot with Atik 383L color through Skywatcher 80ED Pro at f7,5 using a flattener.
Guided through my Celestron 9.25 at f6.3 with Starshoot autoguider and Phd guiding, on a cgem mount.
Stacked in deep sky stacker and processed in photoshop cs5.

I guess I need many more exposures, better optics and greater skills

But it could have been worse, I hope!

Not bad at all. You managed to keep the dynamic range under control.
