Description

I haven't posted my higher res M42 here before. It was taken with our TEC140 in LRGB and Atik 11000 riding on one of our Mesu 200 mounts. Exposures of 11 seconds, 50 econds and 15 minutes were combined using layer masks in Photoshop CS3. I used no luminance for the shortest subs. It struck me as unnecessary.
