Glad you like the colours Ross, bit vibrant I guess but just seemed to work for me

I love this galaxy and your processing of it, and yes I too was blown away when that Hubble image came out. Those 'see-through' background galaxies are amazing, it's cool that you were able to pick some of them up.
I actually have a very old shot of it with the webcam, taken many years ago (it's rubbish so I will spare you the details, lol ) Probably something to add to my growing target list, if the clouds ever clear here...
Cheers Rolf, we will be sharing the photons ..you take the ones falling near Auckland and I'll grab those hitting Canberra

Thanks a lot Ray, I do love imaging galaxies they are the real Deep Sky objects

Ah yes Flats....my full set of 36mm filters arrived last week,. just have to install them now, so we will soon see if I have to continue with these dastardly things
