Nice Mike
This is my favourite version of this object I have seen to date. Love the color pallette and detail is amazing. On my 27" screen I open up the full version and surf around it. Well done.

Seeing stuff like this coming from you guys makes me feel like I have been left waaaaay behind since I pulled the observatory down and took off on terrestrial pursuits. I don't know if I can claw my way back to your standard Mike, when the new obs gets built..... 
Beautiful work!

Yep, your favourite crop, is the pick of the.... ah mmm, crop
Seriously, this is stunning Mike!
I think this would have to be one of your best images that I can remember.
It has everything. Loads of great detail; this colour blend gives a great feel and depth.

Great t hear Chris yes a 27" monitor wouldn't be bad, can you see the whole image without scrolling or shrinking at that screen size?

This is such a stunning image, I kept coming back to it. I like this version better - it really has a bit more depth and impact.
Even though I loved the animals 
It's now IOTW.

Well thankyou Jo
The imaging road ahead is tough at times but well worth travelling, the beautiful photons that fall from our universe are wasted on just your retina.... better to record them on a hard drive for ever
