This one is a work in progress because I don't think the weather is going to cooperate long enough for me to get colour for a while. It's a lovely galaxy in Grus that I've never imaged before.

Cheers

Steve

That's good Steve!

Nice and smooth and detailed, a bit out of my league.

Cheers,

Justin.

That will be a fine galaxy image Steve once you add the colour. The galaxy has some interesting structure to it.

cheers

Thanks Martin. Yes it is a nice one. Plenty of faint fuzzies in the background too.

Thanks Justin. I'm sure it's not out of your league.

This is an interesting looking galaxy. A very smooth Luminence. I look forward to the colour when ever this may happen.

Thanks Paul. Might try for a bit tonight. I've missed some opportunities through being a bit crook. I think the Canberra cold is getting to me.

Nice to see some RCOS 12.5 inch shots. Very good. I think that camera goes best with that scope and not as well with some of the other scopes.

Greg.

Thanks Greg. I think I agree with you. The RC will be staying up there for the indefinite future.

Nice one Steve. That RCOS 12.5 is a pearler.

Mine is sadly still without mirrors...

Thanks Peter. You must tell me about your mirror experiences some day because sooner or later I'm going to have to go through the same thing
