Nice sharp shot. Great star colors. Not overcooked - just well done.

Mighty happy to oblige ma'am (tips hat)
and just in case anyone else is having trouble finding it, the link to DSS 3.3.3 is here:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/DeepSkyStacker/ You will need a .rar decompression utility like winRAR etc

LOL had no choice but to go unguided. Had problems with my guiding the past couple of nights. But resolved the issue for now, but it's going to be a recurring problem if I don't get off this puter and fix it properly, NOW.

Very nice JJJ. Maybe just a tad of green in the background but saturation looks pretty good. You could always go a little more (more to my taste really) but not a necessity. Getting some nice images coming coming out of your site now. Well done.

A good shot.
Sharp with nice colours.
Is it full frame? if so, do you use a field flattener?
Thanks.
Ross.

The image is cropped so you don't see too much of the coma in the corners.
