Plenty of good detail there, curious to see more details about the image myself.

[White Rabbit]

nice shot, I'll have to take a stab at that one myself next.

I just took my first galaxy last night, hope mine turns out as well as yours.

Nice detail Alan...It's low and tough and needs good seeing to get good colour.

[Octane]

Al,

Curious to know as to why there is a lack of colour considering it was taken with your modified 20D.

Having said that, there is loads of detail in the image and great scale, too.

Cheers!

Allan has done a great gob with the imaging the data is great. He and Houghy kindly gave me a copy of the images to have a go at processing. Ive never has the opportunity to process data taken at a very dark sky site. This is what I was able to get with Allan's data. I used Deep Sky Stacker to do the calibration with the darks flats and bias frames, then used Photoshop to finish it off.
