Thanks Greg. The earlier processed versions have RGB bands in them (as Rick said) but the use of HLVG green plugin makes them look a bit gappy I think.

Thanks Rick! I think I'm pushing the limits of a non cooled DSLR in summer here. Temps tonight are 27C and that really puts a limit on how deep I can go. But the sky is clear so I'll be in the obs just the same. One day in the future I will have to bite the bullet and get a dedicated cooled CCD.

Thanks M&T. Dunno about Binos but I had a good view of the reflection nebula one clear cool night with a 10". The same night the horsehead was visible.
