Orion Nebula, M42
The seconds object was the Orion Nebula again. I did 50 exposures, each 60 seconds at ISO 800. I used 45 of them in DSS using BIASES and DARKS. Stretched a bit in GIMP and saved it as jpg. Now, in December, i did some more curve modification in Affinity and saved it for this blog article.
