Thanks Geoff, I find the star field images the easiest to process actually and I think the "millions of tiny dots" look accentuates the high res sharpness too - I like

Ta Marc I have always wanted to image this bit of Milky Way since seeing EE Barnards version in a book when I ws a teenager, I have captured it in very wide fields before but not up close like this.

Once again I note stars right to the corners every bit as sharp as in the middle

Yes I noticed the densness of that blob too Scott, it has a very "reach out and grab it" feel to it huh?

I don't think it's too red at all, but I don't much like the blue pimple in the bottom left ... tends to draw attention away from the neb. Your close up crop is the most striking image IMO.

Cheers, Marcus
Ah that dreaded star OK, I have posted a version that is pimple-less

The small IIS version is pretty poor in comparison to the larger files. You can go to my Pbase site and select "large" in the "other sizes" menu at the bottom of each image page, this opens a much smaller version of each image but better than what IIS displays, you can then decide if you want to open the "original" size

Not the most photogenic object, but hey you've already imaged all the good ones!
Oh you hurt my Snakes feelings Greg, he thinks he is gods gift to girl snakes

Colour background seems correct after checking other examples on the net. Its a kind of a reddish sandstone look. The stars look nice.

I like the crop the best.

Greg.
Cheers mate, my thoughts too
