Description

Sorry everyone - it's another M42 image!  I'm mainly showing it just so I can add it to my gallery.  Hadn't shot it since 2018 and wanted to see progress and it's such a classic I wouldn't resist.  Glad I could get the core details sorted out to some degree.  We've had such a bad year for imaging on SE Australia something quick was needed to keep the dream alive. It worked.  Onwards now to other yummy summer targets!
