Very pleasing to look at, what was the processing difficulty ?
Cheers,
Justin.
In the early versions I did the stretching made the stars go whack and also the galaxy halo showed better but too much at the expense of detail and colour.

Cheers Ray. I have some CDK data for this as well. I should do a combined image and build it up with even more detail. Some of the CDK data was taken on some nights of good seeing and the downloads were very impressive.

Thanks Rick. I plan to combine data from a couple of scopes to get more out of it as well.
Thanks Glen. I am enjoying this round of imaging galaxies. I have a few to process I have taken. Plus some LMC nebulas that are very nice as well.

Thanks Ross. I have been thinking the same thing. Posting on a website is good but ulimately all these images we take need a more permanent
storage. There's so much work that's gone into making these.
Great image Greg, colour looks good and there's some really good detail showing there too
Funny this is another galaxy, along with the Meat Hook, that I've not felt the urge to image, something about both galaxies doesn't grab me..? It's my problem, not the galaxies I think
That image reflect a superb management of colour balance greg.
Well done.
Thanks very much Clive. Colour is a tricky area and one I have worked on to try to get right.

I quite like this one but certainly some objects are more photogenic than others and that will be different for different people.
Thanks Louie. I found extra data for this one I am in the process of adding to it. Its another 8 hours worth plus I got some Tak BRC data which is another 4 or 5 hours as well.
