Tarantula narrowband and broadband 10 hours
I took this data a couple of months ago and had trouble combining all the data together in a tone and colour that made me happy. I am still a little uncertain about how this image looks, but for now I think it might be something close to what I was trying to achieve.

Another stunning image.
This is definitely going straight to the pool room.

That's really nice Paul,
The Tarantula is perfect for the KAF-8300 -
10 minute subframes without burning out any star.
That's giving you so much more star colour too.
60 subframes - a lot of work - & I'd love to see the full size.
Well done.

Man that's just Terrible .
Somehow u managed to spray red stuff all over the screen and then somehow - I don't know how u did it but it seems that u put the Tarantula deep inside it, so it's like a 3-D'ish painting
Way to go !  Well done.
Now for the Rembrandt.

The detail there is as good as any narrowband wide field Tarantula I've seen Paul. The only thing that bothers me is that it looks a bit cluttered. Perhaps think about fading the stars a bit?
Cheers
Steve

It's a difficult field for sure, but you've well and truly nailed this one Paul. Congrats on a great image.

Great image Paul!
Just love the different perspective your filter combination puts on the Tarantula.
Cheers,

Great details. A bit muddy looking to my eye. It'd be great if you could bring out more of the reds or the mustards. I love the blues.

Hey thanks guys for all the comments.
Steve, funnily enough this has had several treatments to the stars to get them smaller. It could do with some more though. I will experiment.
Greg, I will see what I can do with the colours. When I get back from Cairns I will visit this again.
