Rho Ophu and Blue Horse Head

This one is taken using my Tamron 90mm F2.8 @ F4.5 and the CDS1100D @ ISO's 400 and 800.
It's a work in progress and the exposure times are a mix of 5min and 10min subs, totaling 6hrs and 50min so far.
Stacked in DSS and processed in CS3 and CS6.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around the colour on this new computer, to my eyes the image looks a bit too cyan. But looks fine on the other computer. LOL If I keep worrying about it I'm going to go bonkers. LOL

Colour looks good to me. Back ground is a little blue but you could sort that easily.

Great field of view. An area I want to have a go at myself at some point.

One of my fav fields. That's the best way to frame the two. Well done indeed. One for the cool wall.

Fantastic work jjjnetie.
How are you finding the noise levels on the CDS1100D? iso 400 seems low for the camera??

cheers

Wow! What a stunner, JJJ. Love the composition...and the colours as others have already mentioned look spot on. I'd go as far as saying your best yet, no doubt. Excellent work! My only critique would be to raise the black point a little more which will increase the colour saturation, bringing out those fantastic colours you've obtained. Well done. More please.
