Thanks guys
It's the same few tiffs as the first shot. Just better processed using DSS

That is a freaking cool shot. What telescope are you using?

Is your camera converted to full spectrum?

Skywatcher ED80 on EQ3 GEM.
Camera is un moded 60D

shot needs more data. Orion is rising at a more respectable hour soon

Get a used modified camera that is full spectrum so you can pull those vibrant near infrared wavelengths above 650nm.

Would love to see what you capture with a full spectrum modified camera.

Once a camera is modified it is irreverseable so like CRCchemist says get a used one if you need one but don't modify your good camera . Once done that's it , good for nothing but nighttime astro shots .
