Excellent image, Mick. Great colour, good detail in the nebulae, and the stars (whilst a bit bright) are not over-powering.

Cheers,

Bright colours and detail there Mick, gotta be happy with that one!

Nice one Mick you've got the dust detail and ol' horsey well :thumbsup:
I don't have any DSLR experience yet, is ISO 3200 what you consider high gain for your setup?

Pleased to know I"m not the only one doing things like that...


Really nice bit of work, and the colour is superb! Well done.

Gosh I like those colours, Mick. Great job in bringing it alive and making it pop. Im looking forward to giving this one a go too ... and no doubt it'll take me 3 or 4 attempts too. Alex
