These are great shots Alex, you should be very happy with them
all the effort last weekend seems to have paid of nicely.

I'm looking foward to seeing the rest of the shots especially your Horsehead image.

Thanks for your company each night, your advise will be put to good use.

Nice shots Alex

But where are those 'other' shots?

Geoff - Thanks mate, happy to have helped!! The Horsehead shot is being a REAL pain to process... I should have run 10 min subs at least rather than 5mins.. and blending it with the 7.5hrs Ha I have is NIGHTMARE!!

These ones were relatively easy to process... M8/M20 especially... It required two iterations of curves and levels followed by some slight sharpening and a 10% boost in saturation...

Paul - the "Other" shots will be posted in the Barambah thread in the Star Parties section!

Cheers guys.. Was great to have people to talk to while imaging!

Great shots Alex, the second version of M 8/20 is my pick I have just posted my version of Pleiades, nearly didn't. If you thought yours was a bit so-so check out mine. Had a great night.

Glad you had a good time mate.. I did as well... I'll check out your M45 in a few minutes, from the images that were downloading onto your laptop I would have thought the image would have turned out nicely!
