Description

First attempt at M42 with my scope and DSLR on my deck (not ideal), under hazy skies as I was testing my guiding and practicing with Sequence Generator Pro and PHD2 with newer features. I also used PixInsight for the first time. This was pretty much a practice image... I did not take a lot of subs.
