I love your core detail/resolution - and your dark sky has allowed you to display those outer arms.... and now I'm zooming in to all those faint fuzzies in the field lol. Mate thats really really nice. Love it

The "colour" is very "pretty" and striking.

Wow, that's some nice feedback guys

I too was happy with the detail captured and as far as the vibrant colouring goes, I was most influenced by the Chart32 version in this department, not quite the same as the old DM version with the AAT but it just resinated .

Oh and it's light years ahead of my last effort on this galaxy, taken from Kurri Kurri back in 2011 using the AP 152EDF Starfire APO
