Perfect stars, delicious colour, incredible details.

I would give that one a Gold Distinction were I judging that one at the pro photography awards (95+/100)
Ta Andy...Gold Star eh? Maybe an elephant stamp too?

Ta. but Not prize worthy I'm afraid.....the original data (which is very similar) didn't even get a HM at the Malin's a couple of years ago...the man is inscrutable.
That said... Who knows? ...the new H-alpha data alone might do very well somewhere else

Thanks Greg. The AFFR gives me a beautifully corrected field at F6....but it's a bit of a PITA to get rid of the urban sky-glow gradients that come with the wider/brighter field.....sigh...a dark site would be nice...

That part of the sky is one of the most photogenic areas anywhere to be seen.
