Maaaate! Lagoon M8.

[Emuhead (Andrew)]

Hi all,

I can't quite decide as i like both palettes, so preferences very welcome.


Captured on Saturday night from the backyard with an 8" f/4 Quattro, ASI1600mm Pro & astrodon 3nm filters.

Hope you like it.

2nd one is also very very nice. Those 3nm filters are helping there as well.

Excellent details there - I prefer the colours of the second one.

Well done! Great details captured. As with others, I like pic #2 too.

Overall, I think the landscape orientation works best ..but I do like it when Bart/Homer Simpson stands out..when viewed in portrait

The first one is, well, wild. I prefer the second...

Thanks everyone, that's 0:6 in favour of #2.
#2 it is.

Agree the portrait orientation looks like a head with a single bright eye, it's space Cyclops. I do like the wild/psychedelic look the SHO palette gives too, but going with the landscape reddish palette version.

They're both good, but I prefer the 2nd image
