Thanks for the feedback Dave. It took quite a bit of levels and curves to drag it out of the light pollution. I was thinking more time might help bring out a bit more colour.

I agree Rob. I would really like to see some of those colours that you see in the good images of this. I was thinking more subs but perhaps its a light pollution thing?

Cheers Geoff. It's good to have a few clear nights at last.

Thanks Allan. Getting there bit by bit!

yep - nice to see those little galaxies coming through. What you can do from the burbs still amazes me.

I agree that it may look even better with a tad more colour saturation?

Thanks for the comments Mike. The QHY8/10" Newt combination is a nice FOV for quite a few of the brighter objects. I'll have a lok at the saturation.
