This is Messier 42, better known as the Orion Nebula. This was shot using a Dual Narrow Band filter. This filter is designed to only let light spectrums of Hydrogen Alpha & Oxygen III at 7nm thru.

This was taken at silly AM on Wednesday morning, at Parsley Hay on the High Peak Trail.

Usual kit used but it was shot using a 70mm f6 420mm ED Refractor Telescope, with x0.8 Field Flattener/Reducer this made it 336mm at f4.8.

Stacked & stretched in Siril, then PP'd in PS and Topaz AI DeNoise.

In a few months when there is clear weather, and a new moon. I'll reshoot this in RGB

Utterly magnificent!
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
