The clarity and smoothness of the processing is marvelous. Looking at the high res it feels like it's drawing you into the depths of detail. Almost a 3D effect.
Thanks for sharing another one of your superb images

Thanks Barb and David.

Will try to get online more often. Looked at it again and grieving over the noise. I only performed a two layered approach for noise reduction - first layer, the background only (selective mask). Then second layer, over the entire image. By doing so the background gets two layers of noise reduction applied, but it was obviously wasn't enough. Thanks again for your comments.

Cheers Fred. For wide field instruments such as the TOA150 - ABG anyday. You can almost guarantee with a wide field instrument that there will be a bright star in the field that will cause you "blooming" head aches. Some people thrive on dealing with them, but its not something I pleasure. In fact many moons ago, I join GRAS because on their website they advertised the TOA150 had the STL11k connected. Then when I joined, it had been replaced with the ST10XME. Sheesh. Where's the customer satisfaction gone.

So the STL11k on the FSQ is more important than the TOA150 for Christian eh? Darn it.

So G15 is getting a new eyeball...make sure you replace those filters too. Think of captive audience.
