Hi Peter,
Can't complain about a shot like this.
Nice attempt.

Very nice overall. Background is black clipped though. Sky is not black but more a dark grey. So if your image looks like the background is black you have clipped it in levels or curves. Levels should ideally show a bell curve with a bit of space to the left not a curve slightly cut off on the left or no space to the left.

Thanks Guys will try again, I didn't think I had gone to far and cut histogram.

This is one of my favorite subjects. I can't offer advice, but I do like your image.

Thanks Kirk for looking.

Nice image Peter. I'd be using the 10" RCX for small planetary to resolve more detail and get larger image scale. Although a OAG would be needed to get good tracking with the extra FL.

All the best.
