Here is the second rendition of the first image - slightly adjusted the colour chanels in Pixinsight. I know i probably should have used photoshop but i managed to get the green in the core as well as the Blue and the whitish outer loop, defined the cosmic dust better - I like it so thats what Counts

Repro is the first image - the "original" is the second

Gorgeous image Dave !
I like both versions actually, can't decide between the two.

Excellent work, glad you were able to get something, been a terrible season for me.

Thanks RB - as you know i have been after this for some time

Mate we need to have an imaging evening at your place one clear dry night, family chook pickup free with cuban cucumber for your evenings pleasure and suck in a few gigs worth of photons with the astrotracs......and the 5D2, 7D, 40D, 30D, 20D, 20Da's, 400D, 300D and any other D you still have that you can lay on a L lens

A very nice job! I definitely like the colour better on the repro.
