Hi to everyone

I posted the monochrome version of this a few weeks back and here's the colour. It looks pretty bland I guess but I guess you have to try these things. Frankly I expected it to look a bit more colourful but the few shots of this one that I've seen indicate I probably got it right.

Cheers

Steve

Hi Steve

I like it and not that bland to my eye, although perhaps a tweak on the colour saturation might lift it a little more.

I don't think it's possible for a galaxy image to be bland Steve - when you think of what it is you're imaging! I like images like this - I call it understated beauty!

Cheers, Marcus

Thanks Louie. Maybe I should have published a full size version.

Thanks Marcus. I take your point but I always like to see plenty of nice blue star formation regions and little dots of Ha and this galaxy lacks all that. Still there is some nice detail there.

Thanks Ted. I tweaked the saturation just a bit.
