Love this area

Thanks everyone for the nice words. This was just a quick go at a target I haven't images before, might see if I can get some more data (and eliminate the stray light issue) to build on it.

Nice Job Aidan; was that taken with a 5x Powermate, or just heavily cropped?

Thanks ray, it is just cropped. That was as big of a fov as I could get with the framing I wanted. The original image is linked below

Aidan that's very very good!
Doesn't belong in the Beginners Section imo, it's better than some others I've seen posted in the Deep Space section, LOL.

Well done mate.
