Great work, Ian. I like the composition including M20 all the way down to NGC 6334.

Thanks Mike, there is nothing more tasty than a cup of Earl Grey Tea from MLESNA (CEYLON) Ltd. You can get it from the tea-shop in Subiaco, Churchlands Ave, they import it directly from Sri Lanka.

Thanks Dave, next time I’ll try to “squeeze” M16 and M17 into the top-left-corner, not sure though, if all that stuff can fit in single 50mm frame …

It’s HIGHER-res and it's about a quarter of the original high-res, still much better than the 200k-version here.
