Description

M42 Orion Nebula. First try on this target. After reading on forums I decided to go for 5 sec, 15 sec and 300 sec so that I do not get the core burned. Maybe I should do also 50 sec, I will think of it on my next attempt.

Had some major backlash problems having to throw as much as a third of my frames since Orion was popping out of frame from time to time.
