Description

Tried again the Orion Nebula, I think it's the fourth time and every time is a different challenge, I enjoy it very much and it's one of my favourite targets. I tried short exposures to avoid saturation on the trapezium region and then longer exposures to try and get as much signal as possible. The colors are balanced at taste. I personally try to go for a natural look, so I didn't crank the saturation. I hope you enjoy. Comments are welcome.
