Be proud of that shot, I reckon its quite good. You can make out all the cool little detail in the orange belts, and it looks quite smooth and in focus. :2thumbs:

May I ask, how did you get it to the side? Did it move mostly out of one edge and your stacking program just put it like that? I think it looks interesting! :D

:rofl: That's what I meant by poor, because it's not central. No tracking on the scope so I had to let it 'drift' into the FOV....at high magnification plus having to use the 10 second shutter release so I get no vibration =PLENTY of shot's not central.....I dont use stacking, it's against my religion..:D

Nice John.
It has a nice natural look. I'm sure you could pull more detail out with a bit more processing, but I like it the way it is. The off-center just make it look more "arty" :)
Lets call it a post modern composition.
Cheers

:) Well, I'm glad you guys like it. Plenty more 'post modern comps.' where that came from.

its a very natural shot, mine are all like that, except not in focus! :D Great shot though, I was expecting some moons to the right. Could have said that they are there, just the screen doesn't show them :thumbsup:
