Have to add my praise for this.. I would *love* to be taking images like this!

Good to hear the off-centre halos are filter reflections and not from the lens.. at least there is a chance you may be able to fix them??

Absolutely amazing stuff.

cheers
Phil

Congratulations, once again.

It is never too late H, actually I believe that this part of the sky is not going to change much for the next few thousand years

Beautiful.
Both of them Doug, I don't know what would you think if I reveal you that in reality the frames I used are only the selected part of many more that turned out to me unsuitable and therefore discharged.. but that's part of the "game"

Several of your pics are already as beautiful as this this one Phil



I still haven't found time to play with m42 contrast on this image and post the high res zoomify version, I hope to be able within few days as I can finish some errands at work

Holy...

This is just... Wow. Amazing. I am absolutely gobsmacked, Marco.

There is just so much sharp detail and colour, I cannot begin to know where to start looking. I could gaze at this for hours...

Thank you for sharing this outstanding work!

Thanks to you Marc, Shelley and John!

As promised I have a uploaded a full res zoomify version of this image. If you have ie you can also enjoy the view full screen clicking on the right button. Here it is:

I have also played with the brightness of M42, increasing it a bit as per Mike suggestion, however pushing it even further it is going to deteriorate the image instead of improving it IMHO

I hope you will enjoy that.

Clear Skies
Marco
