Given the Tarantula is such a common target for folk after they have started their entry into guided astro photography - why now explain a bit more for us the steps involved - it would make a great tutorial! The subtle detail in your shot is fantastic.

Matthew thank you for your kind words, when I get a bit of time I'll put a small article together explaining what steps I took.
Cheers

But then Images Plus and CCDstack have adaptive darks where the software will adjust your stock dark with the image if it is
a different temp or different exposure length. It works really well. I can't see any difference between them and exact exposure/temp
dark subtractions (but then I have my eyes closed when I look at the results hahaha) no really I can't see any difference. Makes for a
lot of convenience and more imaging time.
Once again fabulous image.

Thanks for the info Greg, I seldom use IP now and I've never tried using a 'darks' library, I'll have to give it a go since it surly will make things a lot easier and allow more time to gather 'light' frames.

Really like the processing, a nice departure from the typical "over red" examples.

PS Good to see you catching some photons

Cheers Deeno, yes it sure is nice to get out under the stars and do some imaging for a change, even though I had to fight high altitude clouds at times.

Dave, thank you so much for your kind comments, glad you enjoyed the image.
I'm hoping to get out and do some more soon.
