Thanks Trevor I find the lens type images tricky to get a good colour look and the stars layered in through the Ha and O111 image which tends to dominate. I was happiest with this latest version which has the LRGB stars layered in using an inverted mask so only the star colour came through and not the background colour which had very little data in it.

I love the Ha version most of all but the recent repro has much nicer colour IMHO too. Sounds like it was quite a processing challenge.

Thanks (yet again!) for taking the trouble to snap a pic of your rig. The big 67 lens and FLI camera are wonderful to drool at. You and Marc have a lot to answer for teasing us all with your widefield exploits!

I did find it challenging to process. These 67 lenses aren't very expensive so they are a good way to get into lens imaging. That 165mm lens probably only cost about $250 or less. The camera of course is expensive though.

Greg.
