Fascinating Jeff, a great capture.

Great work on this tough target Jeff. Certainly screams for a closer look with a longer focal length. The good'ol ST7 - simple yet so powerful in the right hands. Well done.

Well done, Jeff. I like the neg image....plenty of faint stars in it and good detail in the neb'.
