Very nice shot Aaron, I like the colour palette, plenty of contrast too. This image must be lovely at high resolution because the .jpg compression posted still looks good. A great first light for your set up. By the standard you've produced here, it won't be long before you're out of the Beginners section!

Amazing shot. This is the type of image i'd expect to see outside of the beginners section. Well done!

Good on you Aaron on producing a lovely Image.

A wonderful image that I wish I can eventually get close to..inspirational is the most appropriate superlative I can offer.

Thanks all. Not sure I've over sharpened it, but happy with my first attempt at narrowband.


I was hoping to have another go using a wider FOV, but not sure the weather will let me.
