ngc253 at 1600 ISO

Hi Tony,
Re the colour, this is about what the AAO picture looks like colour wise, also a few Astronomy books with pictures of ngc253 show this colour scheme, when I used the MX7C Camera I always ended up with Reds and Greens in the nebulosity, frustrating, usually ended up doing a B/W picture which was great for detail and considering that the MX7C only has a 1/2 Mp image chip, Ill dig out a Pix from the MX7C and post it.

Pix. 8"SCT+ MX7C Camera 1 Exp.-5 Min. DF removed- self guided
cheers....Jim
