Canon 5DH, Canon 300mm F2.8L at f/5, Hutech lPR filter.
Exposures 10x(1, 2 & 4 min), 3x8 min. Usual hdr method. All images dithered and processed upsized. With more data will make a mosaic to get the whole of the SMC.

Bert,
What a great image. Can't wait to see the final mosaic. The focus is perfect. What focus regime do you use?
Have tried HDR but not yet come to terms with it.
I think I should go back and start wide field.
