Southern Pleiadies re-pro

So what do you do when the weather is soooo crappy?

Go over old data, maybe see if you can improve it....sigh...

Rainbow Stars, say no more

A very nice image, the mix of blue and yellow background stars looks great. Everytime I see an image like this i am reminded of how beautiful the night sky really is.

Owls must have a great view of the milky way.

Magnificent image! There seems to be a blue nebula around theta Car and the star on its left. Is that real?
It is also visible in http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/a...4&d=1203208296

A very lovely image Peter, I can see why they are called the Southern Pleiades.

I don't think so. I'd call it lens flare

AP155, SBIG STL11k....might have been a HGM200 mount, don't recall,
10 mins RGB

Oh...and most importantly...a couple of pieces of string for the diffraction spikes
