Pretty cool shot Steven. :thumbsup: It does look like a mushroom. The colours in the star field are great. Soft as.

nice - what are the details of the shot? Scope subs camera etc?

[strongmanmike]

Yes very interesting shot...taken through your drinking straw camera out of that superb large collecting jug :P Nice colours.

It's a well known fact that a drinking straw is the only way to suck more photons in... :P

nah nah nah, don't care what brand you buy (This would be perfect though http://www.flicamera.com/fli/microline.html :D) but man, it's like those ladies who pull up at the supermarket in the nice big shinny 4X4 to just go shopping :rolleyes: . That BRC was intended to have 6X7 film at the focus not a punny little KAF3200 chip.

PS. I am only being lighthearted :P....in case some may missread my humour :question:

It's all relative Mike. Given that I started with a ST-7, the ST-X10ME has an enormous chip area.:)
