Nice. Love to see the dark lanes come out in this object (9 o'clock through 12 o'clock in your pick).

I agree. Very nicely done. Colours look great as does the finer detail in the core.

6 1/4 hours is quite a time investment, it wasnt so long ago most of us thought 6 exposures was enough, .... havent things changed. although its a well known object, to bring up enough detail takes quite some exposing.

Thank you all for your nice comments

I just wish i knew more about processing to bring out more detail.

Hi Martin,
Nice image with nice smooth edges to the nebula but it does look a little bright, at least on my monitor. Lowering the brightness a tad will also bring out more detail in the dust lanes and edges of the folds of the nebula..

Yes rob this was thru the ED80 with a 0.8 reducer/flattner.
