Looks great, the field is a nice size to help show some more of the outer dusty nebula, it's a fantastic area to image, isn't it?

A great job and I'm glad my image was of assistance too

I wish I could shorten and speed up my AP properly, particularly for when the 16803 arrives .

Thanks Mike. The Tak super reducer is a nice chunk of glass. A 16803 would sit nicely at the back end of my setup, but that's not likely to happen any time soon . I can't complain though, being able to choose between 3 FLs is quite useful!

Yep, Orion and Tarantula were my favorite places when I was a youngster. And who would have thought 40 years ago that we could take pics like these with a backyard setup! It's no exaggeration for me to say that imaging this one object fulfills a lifelong dream!

Cheers, Marcus
