Cheers boys

Looking again at the two (well few ) versions, I now can't decide, I like things about all of'em

Oh well, I'll leave it for now and think about my next target

Mike
It's official... I am crazy

Mike, your repro is definitely sharper looking. Not sure how I feel about the very yellow looking interior though. The stars feel more "true colour" but I'm not sure they really feel so blue through a scope?

Beautiful all the same.

Cheers,
Cam

Funny the slight yellow bias in the bright areas is usually processed away but I recon it is correct, there is a lot of OIII in that area, bit like The Orion Nebula, which would add green to the area . In my first version I lowered it almost completely but on reflection I think it is more accurate

Absolutely fantastic Mike!
One of those photos you can swim around in. Just ordered a VX10 from Orion Optics with the Ultra optics to satisfy my deep space visual needs. The photos you produce with the AG12 have certainly pointed me in the OO UK direction.

Great news about the new scope Lucas, glad to be a catalyst for you, you must be more than a little excited
