Ngc253 and M16

I feel this galaxy has been done to death, but its one of my favourites.
I seem to come back to it year after year to see if I can do better.
127mm Apo with QSI 583 camera (L 12x20min+17x10min:R 5x5min:G 5x5min:B 5x5min).
Subs stacked in DSS and Levels and curves in PS3. Unfortunately it looses a lot due to Jpeg compression.

Ive added a monochrome of M16 just for Lewis. This is an easy one to colour - all you will need is a red crayon. Just wanted to bring out the detail and folds in the gas cloud.

Comments welcomed
