That's fantastic Peter! Would be magic to look around and view at full res!

[Peter Ward]

Ta...but sadly very web-unfriendly...the merged raw file was 21,000 pixels
per side....even with 32G of Ram my PC groaned under that weight.

Superb - a real winner Peter

Cheers

[cometcatcher]

So sharp and detailed. Fantastic image!

[Placidus]

Extremely beautiful. Subtly and thoughtfully processed.

There's a new Southern Witch's Head at bottom right that we've not seen before.

[John K]

That's really impressive and really shows this object in it's full glory!

[JA]

It really is ...... molto carina:thumbsup:

Thank you, one and all, for your encouraging responses.

Sadly no new data here, but it is a "new " combination of my RHA and RC datasets that individually have earned a few laurels.

[RickS]

Spectacular, Peter :thumbsup:

[Retrograde]

Sublime.
That large swirl of swirl of nebulosity at the upper right (in from NGC 3324) pops with such amazing texture and detail. :eyepop:

[Octane]

Good Lord, that is sensational. :O

This is the kind of image that gets confused for a Hubble snap... Holy moly :eyepop:

[SimmoW]

My eyes! So detailed Peter.

[Andy01]

That's a beauty Peter :thumbsup:

(Co-incidentally it's framed exactly the same way as a 2 panel Narrowband Mosaic I'm working on at the moment).

Yours renders the detail exquisitely, very well done Sir! :bowdown:

[Slawomir]

Same here. The bottom-right area would make a nice target for imaging in itself.

Very nice image Peter :thumbsup:

[John W]

Absolutely superb picture - my favourite object. Colours and detail great. Worth looking at. Thanks, JW.

[Peter Ward]

Thanks guys...I have some health problems at present so individual responses to your kind comments are a little tricky for me right now.

With some luck I'll be on the mend soon and post something a little more new and epic :thumbsup:

[Maurice]

Looks great Peter..

I hope that you feel better soon.

[gregbradley]

That is a superb image and a reminder of the excellence that is potentially able to be done. Very inspirational.

Greg.

[niharika]

As usual a very nice Eta from you Peter, but more importantly I hope you get better soon.

[RobF]

Very very nicely done. Get well soon.

[Peter Ward]

Thanks guys...Wish it just a cold, but I'm actually battling cancer. The support from friends and family has been amazing. :thumbsup:

[gregbradley]

Best wishes for a full recovery Peter.

Greg.

[Atmos]

All the best things continue improving.

[Retrograde]

Wishing you all the best Peter!

[niharika]

Wishing you all the best for a full recovery Peter.

[Bassnut]

Gaud thats just extraordinary Peter. On a 4k monitor its mind blowing. Hope you battle through your woes.

[DJT]

Awesome image Peter. Quite jaw dropping.

Chin up on the rest and keep those friends and family close. They will continue to be a great help.

Wish you the best for a full recovery, Peter

[Peter Ward]

Thanks for the encouraging remarks guys. I was in two minds as whether to mention my health on the IIS forum.

Treatment/surgery so far has seen some good outcomes and some not so optimal.

This was totally out of left field for me, hence am still coming to grips with it all.

Being a dumb bloke, one tends to dismiss symptoms and not get them checked out....plus I thought my annual aviation medicals would pick up anything serious. Nup!!

So a word of caution....next time you see the Doc, mention even the dumb stuff, the symptoms you might of thought not worthy of mentioning. Could save you a world of hurt.

Cracker image, Peter. Very impressive.

Sorry to hear about your health, and I wish you a full and speedy recovery! My wife, only 28 years old, also got diagnosed with cancer a mere couple of weeks after the birth of our first child. Thankfully hers was caught very early and a couple of quick operations seems to have sorted it all out. I second your recommendation to always mention the dumb stuff, you never know when it might save your life.
