Cone and Fox

From New Mexico. Strong HII region with nice detail in clouds. I have wanted to image this region but the weather always conspired against me. H-alpha blend 100%; H-beta blend 10%.

Wow Tom, you have quite a few scopes all over the World you could just about image 24/7...humff this is just not cricket

Very vibrant and interesting image, nicely processed to smack the viewer on their lipsticked lips

Absolutely great Tom.

Dont you hate it when you are just going to say something and someone beats you to it. - I imaged this area last night and got on the forum here to post a preliminary.

Anyway after looking at yours it just reaffirms that my colours are all wrong etc etc etc. - smile.

great image mate

Mark

Very nice Tom! How about a higher res version? It's nice to get up close and personal with top notch images.

Cheers, Marcus

Thanks Marcus. If you click the image you will get a larger version (albeit not huge). Do you want larger?
