Your version with xi 1 and xi 2 both in the image works better as an image than if xi 2 is just out of frame and wrecking everything with stray light.

One thing, recon 4945 looks just a little dull?..it is a dusty galaxy I guess?....just musing

Excellent image

Fair point. Might play with a bit of a repro over the weekend. I have some Ha now to add to it, too.

Sure is - very brown and dusty. Thanks.
