Description

M42 as captured with ZWO ASI294MC Pro over several separate dates in January 2020. PinInsight PixelMath in combination with numerous sized Range Masks was used to combine 30, 60 and 180s L-Pro filter data to distinguish nebula details while trying to minimize core brightness. Then 180s Ha data was added in the Red channel to bring forth more nebula structure.
