Martin
Thank you Martin, yeah your image was great and btw ontratulations with the APOD
It seems the colour changed quite rapidly, it looks to be brighter in R now, but I haven't been able to take another look lately unfortunately.

Thanks Marc, yes it's a pretty powerful blast! Hopefully I won't be imaging Eta Carinae when it goes off, or my poor camera might be fried

Well done you got the blue alright.I buggered up the processing of the colour and washed it out I might have another go
Here is my first effort needs work when I have time.Not too happy with it.Better get back to supernova searching!!!!
Stu
That's a top shot Stu, great colour and resolution in the galaxy too! And thanks for alerting us to this one, it must now be one of the most photographed supernovae in recent years I think.

Here is two hours of data with light pollution but at least I managed to get a blue tint on the Sn
Thanks Allan, and great image too, it looks nice and smooth.
