Description

I was hesitant to process this data due to not capturing as much data as i had hoped, but I probably won't shoot M42 again this season so I figured why not. At its highest point M42 barely reached 20°, which is about as low as i can go before the observatory wall itself blocks my line of sight.

There were some issues with this image, notably reflections just above the running man which i assume are due to the coma corrector. Additionally there's a horizontal red gradient which I didn't get rid of completely.
