I find this image a lot easier to look at compared to the narrowband mapped image.
I agree with Chris... Do us a favor, on the next image you take, focus it this well, then wind the focuser out about 1/50th of a turn!  Just to make us mortals feel better! |
I'm with you Alex, I haven't seen a visually pleasing narrow band shot of the Tarantula really, some processing masterpieces sure but never all that visually pleasing..?
As you say, a sharp B&W nebula shot can indeed be very pleasing, perhaps it is the contrast effect or maybe the resemblence to those sharp Schmidt plates of a generation ago many of us drooled over?
Regarding focus, I do take focusing very seriously as careful attention to it can really make an image "snap" out at you.
