Thats a lovely image Werner.

Top Shelf. Excellent composition.

[bartman (Bart)]

Werner that is a stunning shot!

I have seen shots like this ( in different angles/ quality etc), but this is so clear and interesting!
For some reason, my focus is on the two little 'white' doodads. I think they are IC424 and IC423. Apart from the stunning views of Flame, HH and surrounding nebs.... they intrigue me....
Thanks for sharing, and I would love to see what your balcony looks like!!!
Thanks
Bartman

That is just awesome!

Nice neat set up!

This turned out great Werner!
The large version is excellent to swim around in.
I like the 8 spikes this lens produces.
The Witch head came out well and there are some interesting tight little nebs floating around near Alnilam & Mintake.
Colours in my pinion are also not over saturated... just right imo.

Great stuff!

Lovely result Werner, not too little not too much, its just right

The spikes look quite ok but have you considered using The lens wide open and then stopping it down with an aperture stop in front of the lens?

Very nice Werner. Very busy image with all those difraction spikes.
Great detail and colour. Nice.
