Hi Cesar, NB is not my thing as a rule but in this case it has really lifted this target. Beautifully captured and framed. Great image scale as well.

Love it. Well done.

Have to agree, I like the widefield aspect of this one some wonderful imaging, but I disagree with narrowing the field of view, :whistle: I love seeing this object just hanging around in space.;)
