M42

Austin, Texas

This image is not finished yet. The core is blown out so I have to take some shorter exposures and redo the core. It is only five images stacked, each was 5 minutes long, and I need to add more to the stack. Shot with a 10D on a Televue NP-101 with an IDAS light pollution reduction filter. Scope was mounted on a Losmandy G11/Gemini. Autoguided with an SBIG ST-237A mounted on a converted Antares 8x50 finder. Focused with DSLR Focus and processed in Images Plus and Photoshop.


other sizes: small medium original auto
