I agree with everyone's comments re the wide field of view here.

Sounds like a challenge down there lately with the cold and the fog!!

Cheers,

Thanks Tim, Oh it's great, -6C all rugged up with a wee whisky in hand under a crisp crystal clear Milky Way...is hard to match


...except perhaps sitting deep in the remote Savannah near Chillagoe, at 20degC, in shorts and a tshirt drinking cold beer......

Great job
Hey, no need to hide behind your blue astro leather Versace couch there Andy Narrowband is good for sure on this target but I had already done that the last time I shot this area, with the AG12 and PL16803 back in 2011, so I thought this time, with the bigger 5.7deg diagonal field, that shows the nebs full expanse, I'd produce a result to showcase the more natural colour palette including the surrounding star fields, which you lose in full narrowband
