My first attempt at M45. It was tough coming up with the exposure time to use but 2 minutes seem to pull in some whispy structure without blowing the stars up too badly. This is a tough object to process. I can see coming back with some more B data and another try at processing to see how much I can pull out.

This is my third processing attempt. Here are the first and second attempts. Then Warren Keller gave me some advice on processing and I came up with this effort. Thanks Warren!
