Nice job Pete. How long were your sub exposures?

Great feeling to get the first DSO, isn't it? I think M42 was my first as well actually. I perhaps got a little more light that you did, but my stars were big jagged lines, and looked terrible. You did better than me.

Keep it going and you'll get more and more revealed each time. (I must give M42 another go, now that I've serviced my mount!)
