An object I found hard to balance colour wise, this image is made of some decent HA exposures and then one of each S2 and O3 due to equipment malfunction. I am not sure about the yellowish colours, but its growing on me.

Great colors and details. You have some registration offsets in your color channels mid section at 4 o'clock. Nice shot though. Like the framing with the claw.

It still looks pretty good Pete at full res. It's a tough area to colour balance in my opinion and I had a lot more data. The medium res image hides all the little flaws.

Thanks, Yea I noticed the miss registration and was going to go back and fix it, but I figure that might be for when I have some more colour data to play with.

Thanks again.

I am sure there will be more nights yet. Luckily you started early enough in the season. Well planned.

That's really very good. I like the diagonal framing.

Good work.

Enjoyed the contrasty look to this wide field image. Such a lovely scene in narrowband. You've portrayed it well. Good job.

Would make a superb illustration for a fantasy novel - a fragile bridge crossing a great and deep chasm. We like it a lot.
