Is that a reason to not bother? I think there is merit in imaging all objects capable of being imaged, whether they are showpiece objects or not.
Personally I skip over the myriad images of standard fare objects posted here unless I recognise the authors name and hence expect to see something special.
The usual m42, m8, tarantula, ngc253 et al have all become very boring and same-o to me. I applaud anyone with the courage and skills to go off the beaten track to attempt other less known objects. These are the imaging threads that I open to look at.
I dont pretend to be knowledgeable enough to critique the works of a skilled imager, but the image sure looks nice to me.
So Martin heres a

from me, and thanks for sharing
