Hi,

Pulled an all nighter imaging various DSO's, it was windy dusty and quite warm, really need some cooling for the camera now!

The Pleiades was a bit of a trick to image,wind blowing directly into the dome buffeting the scope.

5 and 8 minute subs, at ISO 800 a total of 79 minutes.

Cheers,

Justin.

Thanks Marc!

Yep happy with the colours, but still having problems with gradients. I need to upgrde from PS -7 so I can use gradient X.

Here's another version with a darker back ground that seems to help a little.

Cheers,

Justin.

That's a good shot Justin! The only other thing I would suggest is fixing those few dark pixels that show in the nebula.
