Excellent imaging. Colourful and detailed, picking up the dark edges and well as the highlights.

Thank you Cheryl, looks much more realistic with the stars back in though it is a fine image either way.

I downloaded an eval copy of Pixinsight and purchased the tutorial you mentioned. Best $12 I have ever spent as it got me up and running. Thanks for the recommendation.

Are you ever going to put the stars back and post the final image?

Cheers

Yes Alex, lovely image, but this one in particular looks emasculated without
the cluster 2244 at its centre. The cluster makes the Rosette so much more striking.
