Description

The Great Orion Nebula in high dynamic range (HDR) with a HOO color palette. After nearly 4 years into this hobby, I have finally pointed my telescope at one of the most well known nebula in our night sky and I am very pleased with the results. This was my first attempt at creating an image in HDR, which PixInsight provides some great tools to get the job done (i.e HDRComposition and HDRMultiScaleTransform). I continue to be pleased with the results from this newly acquired QHY600 with the Astronomik filters. Only flats and bias frames were used for calibration.
