A bit harsh in spots perhaps but mate, the bloody brightest most impactful Eta neb I have seen I think!

Thanks. It is quite violent looking isn't it. But then I assume it is in fact a violent area of the universe with Eta Carina poised to blow up at any time.

Some might say that the core is burned out especially in OIII, but that's probably close to inevitable if you want to show all those outer goodies, and also some sense of their relationship to the core, so superb!

Best,

Thanks Mike. The core area is pretty bright. I did 20 minute exposures at 1x1. I can look at that to see if the O111 is blowing things out in the core area.

Thanks for that. Your Eta is more refined! Mine more punk rock.
