M22 is composed of 23 frames, the Trap 32 frames.
Originally I thought that the M42 avi was unusable being so over exposed, but on closer inspection I noticed that every 15 frames there were 2 that were darker. So I harvested 70 of these using Virtual Dub, stacked them and this is the result.

Great images Jeanette - well done! You’ve managed to retain the core in M42 which is not an easy task.
M22 also continues to surprise me; it is such a rich, dense globular, but tends to get overshadowed by the two other greats; Omega Centauri and 47 Tuc.
Well done Jeanette. I've been waiting patiently for you to post some pics from the GSTAR. I hope you are finding it easy to use. Look forward to a report on it as i'm considering getting one as well.
Cheers,
Duncan
