After having a series of clear nights in a row I was able to collect enough pictures of the Orion and Horsehead nebula to process. I shot a total of 180 pictures at 300 seconds each.

Processing was done in pixinsight.
Ran automatic background extraction and color calibration. Pulled the stars out using star exterminator. Stretched the picture. Did several curves adjustments to my liking. Added the stars back in using pixel math.

Equipment used:
Mount:skywatcher 100i
Camera: zwo2600mc air duo
Telescope: askar fra300
Filters: optolong L ultimate
