Flame & Horse Head Nebula

[Wombat]

Hello Everyone,
This is single image of the Flame & Horse Head nebula, I used a modified canon 450d slr mounted on a 80mm York Optical refractor with 66mm Williams Optics guide scope. This is a 3 min. exposure with some processing in canon digital photo professional. The image was taken 30 mins. before midnight on new years eve. Sky was to good to waste, beer came later.
Wombat,

Image is where?

Not bad for a quickie

I had a quick look at the histogram for the image and the green and blue channels are severely clipped, which leads to the background having a reddish cast when the pic is stretched. There is quite a lot more detail to be revealed with a stretch, but there seems to be some vignetting. Did you use flats?

No flats used, still learning photoshop. I have an image of the orion nebula that I took on the same night as the horsehead, I am trying to process in photoshop and will upload when it is done and will redo horsehead.
