Yeah Pete, it only just holds together at highest res, but still ok. Thanks.

Excellent, a most beautiful Trifid that, with superb colouring, you have showcased the subtle browns, teals, greens and the whites, as well as the usual blues, in the reflection/absorption cloud around the central magenta Ha/Hb flower, very few images of this beauty nail the balance between them all, this well, a great image.

Hi Mike. Long long story. Short version is that the best I could do for a while was capture data for later processing. Thank heavens for SGPro and the EQ8 being happy to spend the odd nights doing just that.
Now starting to process the backlog and having fun finding out just what is there.
Thanks for your comments on the image. I agree that the subtle colours around the magenta are something to be careful of - I tried to do that.

Hello Greg. Thanks. short exposures and low noise cameras can do OK.
Thanks everyone for the kind comments Regards Ray
