Centaurus A

First proper image with the colour CMOS camera at Laravale last night. I was surprised at how much detail I could get with low focal length refractor. Not bad!

Great result Tony, apart from the good amount of detail that you are happy with, you have picked up much of the very faint hocky stick shaped extensions of Cen A and the some of Galactic Cirrus dust around there too, a testament to what must be pretty dark skies particularly to your south there in Laravale :thumbsup:

Thanks Mike, I just discovered arcsinh stretch over on pixinsight. It's so nice to be able to see star colour! For some reason it wasn't showing up as one of the processes and I had to install it manually.

Sounds intriguing..:question:
