Congratulations for the great result,

Thank you for this assessment Fernando I am very glad you liked it.
You are quite right about the degree of saturation, it is a pretty personal thing, especially with narrow band imaging and I get that some people are not fans of the saturation level that I often settle on...but I have been doing this imaging game for many, many, years now and I think it is important that I image for
me first, too old to change now
. Astroimaging has become so much like visual art in recent years, particularly with the popularity of narrowband filters. Most importantly it is
my art and I do it for
me and not to simply please others but if others like it then I am very happy about that, however if they don't that's fine too, it is like any other art, not every piece is liked by everyone but everyone should remain happy
and comfortable in their own imaging skin
..err?..hope that didn't sound like a soliloquy
just being honest
Mike
