Nice job, Al.

I really like this one.

Nice filigree details, beautifuly round stars. All it needs is RGB stars...difficult from the ‘burbs.....but they would make it the chef’s hat :)

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Nice image Al - great detail showing there!

RGB stars would be cool too if you get a chance :)

Did you shoot this from the 'burbs or a dark site?

[alistairsam]

Thanks for the comments everyone.
Andy, I took this from the 'burbs.

Hope to add some RGB data when I get the chance.

Cheers
Alistair

As Mike mentioned, I've added a comparison of my effort from 2014 and the current 2017 one.
interestingly, both were taken with the same scope and camera and from the same location.
Just a slightly improved operator ;)
