Ic 4628

[Peter Ward]

I'm not all that happy with this one. Looks a little too hard to me (clipped star luminance + colours, a bit of cyan bounce around the H-Alpha overlay...but I was re-working a 16 bit .tiff and have yet to discover where the CDROM with the original raw data files is.....)

Very sharp Peter, and since its all a bit mono chromatic, the colour processing has given it a flourescence that makes it stand out, most appropriate.

Gee Peter I wouldn't be worrying to much about that one, a hell of a nice image indeed.;)

If only I could.:lol:

Leon:thumbsup:

[Peter Ward]

Thanks Leon, Fred....I'm my own worst critic ;) admittedly the 6" scope always does a nice job :)

[Alchemy]

Any details as to exposures scope etc ?

Looks a bit sharp to my eye but still a great image.

Very nice Peter, the dark lanes certainly jump out at you.

Once again a very spectacular image.
