Ill been plucking away at M42 and decided to process the data I have. I really wanted to push the colors and learn HDR composition.

Integration

  • 70x180s Askar C1
  • 60x180s Askar C2
  • ~20 20s and 60s frames from each filter were also captured for HDR Composition
  • ~7 Hours total so far

Equipment:

  • Meade 6000 80mm f/4.8
  • ZWO ASI183MC Pro
  • Skywatcher HEQ-5
  • Askar C1-C2 Filters

Processed in Pixinsight. Used DBXtract, RCAstro tools, and lots of masking and curves. Located in Bortle 6-7 conditions.
