G'Day Everyone,

Just a LRGB image (I have Ha data, but I haven't processed the Ha yet) with the 20 inch Classical Cassegrain at Savannah Skies.

Regards,
Tim

Well, good to see you have managed to process one of the dozens of data sets I know you have sitting around waiting ....and this is quite a beauty Tim with lovely colour...looks like it may not even need the Ha data, the HII regions are already nicely defined, well done

Now get into that back log, we all wanna see the magic of the 20" in the Savannah

Mike

A spectacular image Tim. I also agree with Mike and think adding the Ha may not improve the image as its nicely highlighted without taking over the image.

Fabulous resolution.

Greg.

Absolutely fantastic Tim! I did a quick comparison between yours and mine and it is night and day, aperture and imaging scale rule for galaxies!

Terrific shot. You can even see details in the Ha bubbles. Very cool.

Colour and detail look great but the core looks a little flat to me.
