First wide field with new camera

Well I have a few of these but no photo shop on this machine and this is the very very very first...800 iso cant remember how long but I did a stack of one hour ten that I will deliver later on..this one was about 14 minutes and adjusted with a very basic program..but it has been so long I though I would use it to see if I remember how to post...

Stunning shot Alex!

Just look at the detail in the pipe nebula, and the rho complex! A marvellous area to image! Great composition too... Very nice indeed.

I look forward to the 1hr version!

I maybe a bit late to respond Alex, but I have to agree with the other comments very nice indeed, who said you were rusty at this business.

Nice one Alex, a bigger version would be even better to have a look around the neighbourhood with .... perhaps you could send a larger version to Mike for him to compress if you don't have PhotoShop.
