Description

It's rain today, so I thought I might be able to reprocess M42 to achieve a better natural color balance and tease out more detail in the fine structures and also expose the trapesium in the core.

I have had to mostly play around with mitigating noise while trying to increase detail. Overall I am very pleased with the final image processing and the hours of fun I have had doing this project.
