Hi Peter,

It's very nice, but...

It's a little too blue for my liking.

No I'm not just trying to start an argument, I see no reason why the Ha regions in external galaxies should be a different colour than those in our own.

This is one of the reasons I struggle with Galaxy shots, I can never seem to get the colour balance right.

OK, can most of that, I just loaded the shot into Photoshop, it comes out a different colour!

I struggled to get a nice shot of M83 last year, finally got something half decent, but never in this league. Just wish you could eliminate the diffraction spikes!

Cheers
Stuart
