The Milk Way Core: A Partial View

Hi guys,
This is one of my incursions in wide field imaging, showing a partial view of the Milk Way.

We can see several well known objects, same dark nebula patches, extensive regions of Ha and a lot of gas and dust in the interstellar medium.

This image has been acquired with a Canon EF-2 85mm f/1.8 telephoto lens attached to a CCD ST-8300M.
The capture was guided through a TMB92mm and a Lodestar guider afocal to it.
The stack is as follows:
Luminance: 8x300sec
RGB: 5x300sec each
Ha: 10x600sec
All above binned 1x1.
The lens was stopped down to approximately f/5.6 in order to reduce the chromatic aberration.

A link for the full resolution image is here:

Thanks for your time to look and I hope you like.

Fernando
