Cheers Paul - glad you liked it! Yes it's cropped - you're seeing about 72% of the full 4008 pixel wide frame. It's not scaled though. The galaxy is pretty small (for my scope) at around 3 x 13 arcmins so some cropping is in order for a pleasing composition. Not too sure about the stars looking big (?) - the dimmer ones are only about 2 pixels across (FWHM).
