Enrique,

The image is spectacular. It almost looks 3D.

WOW heaps of colour and detail - fantastic Enrique, that 14" makes a huge difference. Though the image does exhibit some "coma" like effect with the stars around the edge of the image being slightly "eggy" in their shape - more on the right side. Maybe the camera is not sitting quite flush or squared up to the optical path?

Thank you all for your comments.

Regarding David's comment about coma:

I am using the Lumicon Giant Off Axis Guider. There is a small misalignment somewhere. I have tried everything you can think of including using pliers to super tight all the screws. I always get one corner out of whack; most of the time the top right one.

Any ideas anyone?

Enrique

Plenty of detail in the dusty areas, you must have sorted out your guiding and tracking problems. Good processing also.
