Looks a bit like the flying spaghetti monster. Glad you left the stars in.

I like that. Very electric and very solid low noise colours and depth.
Really deep. That 6303 is a nice camera.

This is the same object I posted an image of (I thought its NGC1935 the Super Bubble)? Just rotated compared to mine.

Greg.

Thanks Guys, much appreciated.
Thanks Kevin, flying spaghetti monster is now its official name ;-)
It does look a lot like NGC1935 Greg, but it is different.
Nice one Mike, I had to look that one up!.

Intricate object! and colourful as you say. I find the pink halo around some stars distracting but considering the instrument and operator I'm guessing it's legit not some optical artifact?

Thanks Marco, Roger and Rolf.

Yeeees, the pink halo was left on what, 3 big stars, just to prove they wernt all just white, or that I dont just hate all of them. Point taken, I make sure they are all white in the future, none deserve to have any colour really, given they are all just as boring as each other.
