Love it. Well done.

Thanks Lewis!

I presume you mean in image hosting site?
Not sure I can save in sufficient size in PNG on IIS.

Nice to have your keen eye look over the image.

Thanks Kevin!

A few more ports on a cold night and the animals leap from the sky!

Thanks Rob!

Thanks Elio!

Nice to have input from a fellow DSLR imager.

Thanks Louie!

To be honest I wasn't sure how this one would be received. Always a little doubt after staring at it for so long.

Thanks Allan!

Did have a look around the interweb after processing this image to see how others had processed NGC 6188, and was happy I came up with something a little different.

I think there's a few others that can claim that title.

Thanks David!

It's a great region for the stars alone, but hard to balance them out though.

Cheers,

Justin.

Had another look and I really love the colors. Makes me wanna try harder on this one in RGB next time I have a chance. How dark are your skies?

Great stuff Justin always like looking at an image of the fighting dragons

Thanks Mike!

Yep, so many ways to process the dragons, always worth a look at a new image of them.

Cheers,

Justin.

Well done, Justin. This looks great.

NGC 6188 is a very difficult object to process. I've tried several times over the last 8 years and haven't gotten a version I'm happy with. Next year is the year!

Thanks H!

Glad you like it.
Wish there was an easy formula for processing, but for these more complicated regions it seems to be more fiddling than formula is necessary.
