You have the Rams head pointing to the right, when it points to the left I recon the scene looks more balanced..?

Thanks Mike. I pondered for quite a while whether to go back and layer the Ha in again to try and tighten up the sharpness. Decided in the end to stay with the softer focus brought in with the RGB - didn't do any deconvolving on the RGB as so little data. I guess it looks reversed due to Newt mirroring versus refractor?

Great stuff, get that camera working for you.

Yes Doug - I've learned to love the wonderful contrast you get on most nebs, but was genuinely surprised just how little extra detail and contrast was added by the Lum data for this one. Luminosity layer in PS ended up being mainly Ha in the end. The loops just wouldn't have come through otherwise. I'm sure you're going to have fun with the new cam and full narrowband.

Hehe - hadn't seen that before Clive. Took me a while to find Mike's ram, but see what you mean now. "Neb of many faces"....
