Hi Paul,
That's nice & sharp - a very good photo.

I hope to go to the same site soon - Heathcote LMDSS -
with my new QHY9 when I get it all operational.
Might see you there.

cheers

Hey Paul that looks excellent, I can't seem to get anything more than a small image of it though..? Can a larger version be viewed on Photobucket?

I like the dark look, many Corona Australis images have the dust very bright, which is also cool but keeping it darker does give the area more of the dusty mood.

First of all thank you everyone for your encouraging comments

Mike you can view a larger image on photobucket by clicking the image itself I think that may work

Regards Paul.
