Helix fixed

I was able to get better RGB for the star color, so I fixed my recent Helix. It has a different look to it at this image scale.

Very cool shot. Hard to notice the star colors though. I can't take my eyes of the central DSO. Just awesome!

From what I remember of the original version I didn't realise it was broken.

Agree with Marc. Neat.

Hi Tom,
Well done. I hope I can do as well as this some day.
Do you know what the image showing displaced colour is at the lower end of your picture (middle right)? With the length of time taken to make the image I first suspected it may have been an asteroid or comet. But which one?

Wonderful image Tom, the wide FOV really does it justice and puts it into a real perspective in regards to its size.

Cheers
