Description

Very close to the Horsehead Nebula is the Orion Nebula (M42). This is another combination of various exposures to not "blow out" the core and then adding some HA data to make the red "pop" a bit more.

Taken over a couple of nights and a mix of 5, 10, 30, 60 & 120 images using L-Pro filter and added 180sec HA from ANTLIA ALP-T dualband filter

Stars were processed from RGB
