Hi Phil

This is a gorgeous image of this lovely galaxy in a superb setting. It looks really sharp and quite magnificent.

Cheers

Lovely work Phil. Well done. Remarkable details. Careful not to push the sharpening too much also watch out for black clipping (blue channel). I'm really pleased to see some of your work again. Keep it up.

Phil, the colour balance is good, and I like the "hanging in space" FOV. The galaxy detail itself is a bit lacking, but I like the way you handled processing on it, with the smooth disk.

4*10mins is pretty light on, can you take more subs?.

A great image Phil, I like the clarity and smoothness of the disk.

If that was testing the camera then I'm looking forward to the serious effort.
