Hi all,

M83 should be easy to get a great image of. This is why we are so critical of the images posted. It's not that easy actually. I've got an image which I'm quite proud of because I know what went into it, but I won't show anyone 'cause it's not quite right.

Anyway this is a great DSI image of a galaxy.

I've owned one I know they are not the best for this type of object. But it shows one of the problems my images of galaxies show. Burnt out stars. Stars that are obviously saturated detract from the image. Anyone know how to fix this??????????

I also had shedloads of gradient from LP in my images, so much so that I bought a LP filter. It's been cloudy since so I don't know if it works yet!

Keep up the good work.

Cheers
Stuart
