I feel I'm a little late to the party with this considering we have had a few lately.

Field was to tight to get the globular in without chopping off some of the nebula.

5hrs of LRGB on 302mm f4 Truss GSO.

Dave,

That has some incredible clarity and finesse to it, and doesn't look at all processed out the wazoo! Nice natural balances. Well done!

Thanks Lewis, yes processing was rather light. I stayed away from deconvolution etc. on this one.

A lovely image of a lovely bit of sky Dave, nice job. Some real colour variation in there too, perhaps a mild green gradient across the top there?..doesn't detract but would be pretty easy to remedy :thumbsup:

Great image Dave!
Such creamy colourful nebulosity.
And a lovely variety of pinpoint stars elsewhere.

Congratulations! :thumbsup:

Have a look now Mike. May have been a bit of a delay with the Abobe link.

Cheers

Nice going Dave. You seem to have the GSO working well now.

Hi Paul, Reasonably happy with the GSO. Not perfect but probably good enough. Still has a small amount of tilt which I may tackle at some stage.

By tweaking the focus slightly I can get good shape stars in all corners without effecting the central stars significantly. Perhaps if I was at a site with very good seeing this may not be the case.


Cheers Dave
