Agree 100%. Not sure whether it is the filter, location or skills, but this is the most detailed and cleanest wide field image of the Dragons I have ever seen on IIS
EDIT: Now I recall Martin's rendition in colour was beautiful as well.

Thanks a lot guys, glad you liked it, it's a Ha image of the NGC 6188 region, an amazing region for sure....but that's all, not worth any worship

100% agree on both counts.
Mike's REALLY pops IMHO.

He, he, geez, I think many others have done that already Al...I've come late to what is the FSQ phenomenon  but yes, I really love what this scope can do with a big chip  ..it would have been amazing to shoot 6cm X 7cm film with this baby.

Hi Mike,
it would be.
Also if you could piggy back it on your large Newt. & overcome differential flexure
then you could always get 2 pics for the price of one.

There's a section about 50% of the way toward 3 o'clock which looks very like bits of the vela SNR.
A very pleasing overview of how the area goes together Mike.

Well, with around 50kg worth of two scopes, two cameras and required off axis balance weight already loaded on the NJP  not sure even the Incredible Hulk NJP would handle another FSQ with 6X7 camera

That's it! That's it exactly. There must be a common SNR mechanism that generates Edwardian soup-strainers.
