Bad weather has stopped any imaging so a bit of a Repro on M17. HaRGB Taken on 6th of June 2014 with the following equipment.
GSO 12” F4 Newtonian with ASA Wynne Corrector (0.95) F3.6 Atik 11000M, guiding with Starshoot auto guider
Ha 40, R15,G15,B15, Acquired with MaximDL , processed with CCDStack2, PixInsight, StarTools and PS6.

Thanks for looking.

All the best

Paul :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Colours look great, Paul, but some strange artifacts. I think it might just be the IIS site compression. Have you got a pointer to a bigger version?

Cheers,
Rick.

Thanks Rick, I'll upload an uncompressed version to Astrobin later.

Great colours :thumbsup::thumbsup:...I think you are still "working" on your stars huh? I think this may be damaging your overall image quality a tad.. but never the less and certainly at small size, the image looks great!

Yep, stars look a little funky but the image has a lot of promise, Paul!
