Goodness, starting to sound like I'm getting evicted from the beginner astrophotography community.. .. but that feedback is great, since that make me feel like I achieved pictures that are an improvement over my last ones...

If you guys think that my pics are good enough for the main photography section, I'll start posting there... starting with the Orion Nebula I'm working on now...

So far I only have HAlpha and Sulfur II subs... all were 30 minute subs, ISO 200 (about 4.5 hours worth for each filter) but also 8 x 5 min subs in HAlpha for the core.

I could get away with imaging that spectrum in and around full moon but for OIII and HBeta I'll have to wait for a moonless night since 486NM and 501nm are nearly slap bang in the middle of what the moon reflects/glows in...

Here's what I have so far but the final will go to the deep space section.

Pics are the HAlpha Channel, the SII and HAlpha and R & G with B left with nothing and the last is SII and Halpha but R & G channels reversed. Also a bit of Color balancing and Hue adjustment in PS.

Thanks for looking and the great feedback...
