M42 from my latest trip to AUS

[LT]

Taken with Vixen ED81SII ED apo + HD reducer kit + 100Da @495mm F6.1
Total exposure = 6x240s @iso1600 autoguided with Vixen AP non-goto mount
Calibrated with 6 darks only. No flat calibrated but appling DBE tool in PI

So as to enhance the color, quite much amount of saturation was applied, resulting it is seemed to be a "fine art" presentation.

Quite bad weather with my trip again. Moreover, big moon high in the sky. So as to shoot this object, I needed to wait till 1:30 am for the moon going down. Moreover, just after several shots of this object, cloud came, and so autoguiding was not done so well. Almost half of sub-frames have to be rejected.
