Eric,

I've been busy, and around. Things happening.

Not my setup -- it belongs to Zane at Magellan Observatory. He's kind enough to let me make use of his wonderful toys.

Cheers.

Mike,

I will try for some Hα as soon as possible and see what else can be brought out.

Thanks!

Niiiiice work that!

You "could" play with it a bit more if you like (?) but not sure what you could get out of it? As you say, some Ha might help bring out some more but it is mighty fine as is IMO

Rohit,

We all have to start from somewhere -- I'm constantly learning, myself. Everytime I capture and process, I learn something new.

Thanks for the kind words.

did you get one of those space visiting shuttle rides and got them to stand at one place for few minutes and grab that image....i just can't believe it....amazing.....

wait did I say what an amazingly beautiful image that is .... i think I'm gonna throw my dob and just follow your photos, I'll see more than what I'll see from my own 8" dob that too in color.....

I would certainly agree with everyone else in submitting your snap to any photo competition....you will surely be a sureshot winner.....

i'm going to save this image...its a stunner and a keeper.....

as i say it..... print it, frame it.... adore it

Phil,

Thank you, sir.

Thanks,

This is one of them!

I was visually observing Alnitak the other night and to think of all the beautiful detail that is hidden to the eye!

Wonderful!
