Frankly if some one had simply shown me that image and asked me whether it was taken with a DSLR, I would have said "no way"

A remarkable result !

You've done it again Ian! First your M20 now this one, wow!

Well done :thumbsup:

[Paul Haese]

Nice DSLR image. Impressive detail for type of camera.

Paul, Rod and Peter - Thanks for your comments. :thanx:
As I mentioned while publishing the M20’s image the overall conditions were outstanding.
Low temperature … made the camera almost like working with a cooler …

It’s not only possible, it’s real.
Altogether, it’s a combination of air conditions (that’s 1st), exposure, ISO, number of frames, (soft) processing parameters etc. etc…

An excellent M104 Ian! Lovely subtle dust lane detail visible there.

Nice work
