Hi all,
I hope you are well.
Here is my first attempt at The Orion Nebula:
M42

I took this last friday/saturday morning in my back garden in light polluted Templeogue! I am quite pleased with it, though I am still learning how to process images in Deep Sky Stacker, not to mention learning how to setup all my various equipment properly!
I think I might have possibly over saturated it slightly in DSS itself.
Let me know what you think! Feedback most welcome!
Phil

Thanks Mark. Yeah I am dying to go out, but it's awful out there!
A bunch of us are heading up the Sugar Loaf tomorrow though, come along if you fancy it!

Nice image. Very natural looking.
