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%.

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

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?
