Description

After having to be patient for 8 weeks straight because of constant clouds I finally could image again a few days ago and wanted to do an early Orion. Unfortunately my blue channel wasn't usable because of clouds but luckily 2 days later I managed to get the last data.

I'm very happy, especially color wise with this image. I like the hues that are the result of LRGB Let's hope the weather will cooperate again soon.

Shot at gain 0 because of the huge dynamic range of the target.
