Description

Close up view of the Orion Nebula's core. I decided to go with only narrowband data to bring out the details and combined it with PixInsight by applying it in the following RGB combo:

R: (0.2*Ha) + (0.8*Sii)

G: Ha

B: Oiii

Total integration time is roughly 2hrs total. All 120sec exposures.
