M42 Orion Nebula

The Orion Nebula (or M42,) is among the most photographed objects in the sky. This is probably due to the fact that is a very bright nebula and even observable with the naked eye. It is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way and it lend to beautiful color rendering even with a standard Hubble Palette,
This image was made by stacking 54 exposures from classical narrow-band filters (Halpha, Sii and Oii) on a Officina Stellare ProRC 700 telescope (Spain-2 for telescope.live users) for a total of 81 minutes.
Processing used PixInsight for extracting the RGBL layers, which were further processed in Photoshop with focus in treating stars and the nebula separately.
