A bit of everything ... NGC 6559, IC 1274 and IC 4685

[Octane (Humayun)]

Marcus,

Nothing much needs to be said, other than that is utterly superb.

It's like something out of a dream or a landscape painting of the celestial kind.

7 Internets to you, sir.

Regards,
Humayun

Thanks a lot Humayun! I'm really glad you see the image that way - that's pretty much the effect I like to achieve!

Cheers, Marcus

Yeh, I think this is your best and nicest image to date mate , really colourful and very nice to look at.

Needs a bright star in the bottom left corner though

awesome - so much eye candy.

I agree Mike. I also think it is an outstanding image. The subtle colours are fantastic and the detail you've captured is hitting way above your aperture. The TOA150 is one of the greats.

You know on the Anacortes website they say Tak has a 110mm and a 180mm TOA planned. Probably not during the global financial crisis but a 180 TOA could be nice eh? It'd be heavy but nice.

Aaahh, sorry about that oversight Mike. If it's any consolation I was thinking of you when I kept the yellow pimple at the bottom of the frame

Thanks a lot mate!

Cheers David - not quite one of Mike's "heavenly bodies" but the next best thing for sure!

Holy cow - a TOA 180??!! Just thinking about it gives me a hernia ... and my bank manager would have me committed ... and my wife would divorce me ............... and ..... it'd be worth it ! Seriously, I think we'll be waiting a loooooong time before we see one.

Thanks Greg.

Cheers, Marcus
