Had a go at re-processing the data and Ive lifted it a bit - see if you like the Sidonio'ed effort.

It makes me very proud to have a habit named after me if that habit can improve an image like you have here

Nice work but I'd get a meat cleaver to the central areas (kidding, that was for Carl)

What I suggest is when the "second improved" version is posted it's called "a Sid" while all subsequent versions, pallettes etc are "Sidonios".

Glad you liked the Sid.

Im seriously thinking of the 12" GSO RC as it is claimed to have 30mm flat field diameter which would be really nice with this scope. Apparently there is a .75xfr/ff made by GSO for it which would make it a killer at f6. Love to hear your comments when you get your hands on one.

Allan you can be assured once I get my hands on a new one I will have a review of its performance. I will have to investigate the FR/FF. I have not heard anything about that but I have not been checking regularly either.

Glad you like it Marc. Wait until I add the luminance or Ha to this shot and then it will really shine.
