I like your Dark Horse Nebula rendition too... I happened to take one a few months ago with virtually identical composition so it caught my eye
Hi Dave,

Thank you, I'm glad you like it. The beautiful dark skies at Coonabarabran really brought out detail I was not expecting.

Our Dark Horse Nebulas are identical and were taken with nearlly identical equipment. Mine was a Nikon 180mm F2.8 lens on a QHY8L ccd....great minds think alike!
A friend of mine also has a Canon 135mm F2.0 that he uses on a Canon 5D Mk1. It is such a great combination for astro work and shows very little CA.
