Second go at M42

[Starcrazzy]

Here's my second attempt at M42. My first one was ok but had tracking problems. I think the focus in this one is a bit soft, but 57 mins at ISO 800 (f5 newt) really brought out some detail..I did a quick process in photoshop, ill spend the time tomorrow and get it a bit better (i hope).
Let me know how I can improve, its only my 4th real attempt at this DSO stuff..Picking it up slowly.
Cheers

Youre doing a lot better than me. Im too embarrassed to even post my recent first attempts.

Nice image there. For a 2nd go at M42, you seem to have the basics in place there.

Yes it's certainly a treat. I was viewing it last night. Nice job on the image.
