Thanks Janette.
Troy actually reminded me of this one as he was shooting it as well.

Thanks Geoff.
That was some Ha I did with a Pentax SMC 150mm prime lens. 6 panels I believe, with a Baader 7nm Ha filter and the QHY9 from home.

Thanks Steve.
I don't think I've ever tried this one in colour before. It's in a couple of wide fields I did in the past.

No green in that one. I was referring to the Goobots.

Thanks a lot Greg.
Yes there is quite a lot of variations in colors in the field. Always liked the bunch of very bright blue stars on the left side of the roof.

Thanks Rick.
Quite a lot happening in one field. I use Goodlook 64 for the black point and color balance exclusively. It gives me consistent results. I'm always very bad with color balance for some reason.

The star colours are great. There's an impressively bright yellow star toward ten o'clock which adds interest. Nice composition.

Thanks Mike.
I have been shooting non stop for 5 nights so heaps of data to play with. Long trip up there. Gotta make it worthwhile.
