Have you used sharpening? If so, perhaps back off on this a little but great little set of images that

So what, had you said you would never do imaging or something..?

The 32X and 128X are the intergration or shutter exposures used in the range of astro video cameras out there.
128X is max intergration and equals about 2.5 second exposures,so when the video camera such as the g-star is set on this it is doing 2.5 second exposures and the image on the screen such as a TV or LCD is refreshed every 2.5 seconds or there abouts.
At 64X it is about half the 2.5 seconds so every second or so and at 32X about a 1/4 of max and so on. Shows the sensitivity of these low light video cameras. Very nice images Jeanette.
