Description

This is a work in progress.....

I haven't collected enough Luminance & Blue frames yet.

QHY9M & AT65EDQ

Luminance- 4x600s

Red-5x600s

Green-5x600s

Blue-2x600s

This was the 1st time I shot M42 with my AstroTech AT65EDQ. I really like the FOV with this little scope. This will probably be the 1st shot of many this year, this nebula is my favorite wintertime target
