I'm glad you came away from Astrofest with such a nice sample bag of images Josh.
M7 looks lovely and your processing on the Swan is great.
Looking forward to seeing you there again next year.

How good is that. For your first astro images you have done a great job. Well done Josh and as JJJ said hope to catch up next year. Your neighbours from Fri to Tuesday morning.

Agree with all the feedback, Josh. Also, remember that your "humble" pics are about as good as film images from the Hale 200" 50 years ago!!!!
