Thank YOU Al for posting.
I love this Nebula.

Nice image Alan, obtaining a good amount of subs at iso 400 has certainly helped to combat any light pollution and has brought out good detail.

Looks great Al! I'd like to see it reduced in size a bit so there's not as many jpeg artifacts when reduced to 200kb.

Nice work!

Nice shot, Al!!.

Hi Al

That is a real beauty – well done! I love the colours, both in the nebula and of the myriad stars in overall setting.

Cheers
