now there is an idea you have put into my head. I am talking to a heap of school kids on tuesday and this would make a fine example of showing what an area looks like close up sequencing in from a "coal sack" dark area from a widefield 18mm shot to an awe inspiring area not devoid of stars but full of them. Smart man you are Mr T
the interesting part to me is the fact there are so many stars -and as you say resolved to pinpoint areas of light rather than a glow.
i also note your using a eq6 - didn't you have a g11?
