Reply to I captured this picture of the Orion Nebula from a city using basic equipment by LeBrown_James666
Equipment - Nikon D7500, 70-300mm kit lens, Standard tripod
Skies - Bortle 7-8 according to lightpollutionmap.info
Details - 460 Light frames, 50 dark frames
Camera settings - ISO - 3200, f/6, 1.3 seconds, 300mm
Image Processing -
I exported all the RAW files as TIFF files and stacked every frame in a software called Sequator.
After stacking, i opened the final picture in Affinity Photo and did multiple curves and levels stretches.
Affinity photo has a background removal option which kind of helps to get rid of any light pollution in the background.
I also messed around with the vibrance and saturation
