M42 by Canon SX530HS

Another shot taken with my £95 SX530HS. Software = CHDK, Astrokam, ASPS, PHD2, DSS, StarTools and Paint.Net.

I am a member of the Powershotters group who asked for some details on how I processed this image. Here is a light image:

Original light image. 180sec, 1600ISO, full aperture, 50x optical zoom.

and here is a dark image

Dark image

The 48 light and 15 dark images were stacked in Deep Sky Stacker along with 25 flats and 15 offsets to produce the FITS image below. This was then processed in StarTools to give the final result above.
