Description

M42 "Orion Nebula" taken from my backyard on a Bortle Class 6 sky (19.17 Magnitude)
The picture was taken almost 1 year from the previous attempt at Orion Nebula.

M42 "Orion Nebula" Close-Up

This time with a much more forgiving scope for the tiny AZGTi mount.
Also this time the I had a Raspberry Pi4B with Astroberry on it and a webcam used for guiding so this enabled exposures of 180 seconds.
The strange pattern over the brighter stars is a result of the Castell CLS filter which created some kind of optical defect. This is not shocking as the filter is intended for visual astronomy only.
