Yes the subject of my image here is a little more obscure than what you went for on that Tasco at a Palma but I like a challenge

I actually like the smaller version, the image appears brighter than the large version.
See what you mean Carl but of course you can just shrink the large version in your browser to fit on your screen, this gives the best view

Cheers Rowland, yes nice gear is good to use but there are a whole gammut of processes and tribulations involved with using this large out in the open portable rig, it is no easy task getting to this final image

The colours are great and I really like how it has such a soft look while still brimming with details.
Even the little Hourglass is showing some features, that's not often seen in M8 images I think. Any chance of a high res crop of the Hourglass?
Thanks Rolf... I tried to respect the light

Super processing to retain that natural look.

Thanks Greg, all the effort is worth the result
