Cheers Mike! I love my hyperstar lens, as Rick and yourself refer, under dark skies its a dead set Dyson with cyclonic blah blah blah . I actually approached the work flow for this one with the "less is more" mentality. Easy to do when the raw data is soooo good.

Thanks Marc! I was quite excited as soon as the stacking was complete. Heavy indeed! The Cgem DX copes well though.

Thanks Rick! The Hyperstar is the 60Da's best friend during the warmer months, 1 to 2 minute subs are all you need.

A not-so-often shown part of the sky. Reminds me of the Corona Australis gas and dust complex.

Thanks Mike and Trish! There wasn't much to do after stacking, It just looked real good to me. I shot Corona Australis from home last year, not a real gob smacker but pretty all the same. Image here

Thanks Geoff! I really like the dusty objects. For some reason, imaging and seeing other people pics of dirt in space really appeals to me
