Thanks Mike. Yeah it's my fav too. Even 1:1 looks good. The scope can do it and the corrector's spot on. The only variable is between the chair and the keyboard.

Thanks Greg. I had a big halo on Acrux too but it went away ok. I might redo Antares later on see if I can do a better job and bring back some color too in the star.

Thanks mate. Yes I noticed that one too. I'll post a 1:1 crop of it. It has some dark dust lanes in it as well and some structure. Will look it up for a name too.

Great looking photo of Acrux...so sharp and detailed.

I love the look of the mosaic. Looking forward to you adding more to it.

Looks like you had a great time at Wiruna. Wish I was there.

Ross.
Thanks again Ross. Add a ball. Weather was perfect and great company. Next time.

Thanks Rolf. I'm forever imaging it because I usually do my first goto on it. It's easy to spot the double in the finder. I focus on it too and start guiding to make sure everything is working ok so I always end up with a lot of subs on it. THen I move on to my targets.

Thanks David. Did you image at all there?
