YAY! you did it! I knew I could coax it outa ya!

Yes excellent, not a HUUUUGE difference but about as much as I expected there would be given all the things you did to get this image - as mentioned in you soliloque .

Funnily enough there is still some more detail visible in my version compared to yours in a few places but overall the fine subtle res in your much more highly sampled image is certainly better, which you would expect given the much longer FL, use of AO and the aperture difference.

Great job and you have some excellent gear dude

Oh and the star is missing in my version becasue I didn't do any short exposures for the homonculous so I just minimised (did I do that???) big bright Eta in Photoshop, so this just removed the star in close.

No problemo...it's not quite full-res as I'm still working on the data.

For sure, there are differences. I'd put it down to processing.

CCD imaging would be very dreary if we all processed data exactly the same way!

Thanks Jen!
