I took some more of the Lagoon Nebula and stacked 170 at 30 seconds thru the 8 inch using the nikon camera.
No darks and played with first in photo shop and then in gimp to the point where I am not sure any more ..I probably over did better images along the way but I had to put it up and see how it turned out here downsized and ready for pointers on the colour

...But I think it has more detail by reason of more frames and the second lot were in better seeing so added to things hopefully...its all practice.
