You've got a bad gradient in the background though. Top half is very green and bottom half is too blue.
By the way Fred, how large is the corrected image circle from the 12 inch ACF?

Yes, now that its dark around my LCD, the gradient is awefull, dont know how that happened. The quick fix is only a bit better, sorry.
Gaud, I dont know what the image circle is on the ACF, but I took a 40D pic with it and the AP 0.67 reducer (I think) and it came out OK.

Lovely detail.

Thanks Steve. FITS liberator flips vertically when importing to PS for some unknown reason (I forgot to flip back), and otherwise oreientation is wherever I can find a bright guide star for the OAG AO guide cam with a rotator.
