Ta...but sadly very web-unfriendly...the merged raw file was 21,000 pixels
per side....even with 32G of Ram my PC groaned under that weight.

Extremely beautiful. Subtly and thoughtfully processed.

There's a new Southern Witch's Head at bottom right that we've not seen before.

Thank you, one and all, for your encouraging responses.

Sadly no new data here, but it is a "new " combination of my RHA and RC datasets that individually have earned a few laurels.

Sublime.
That large swirl of swirl of nebulosity at the upper right (in from NGC 3324) pops with such amazing texture and detail.

That's a beauty Peter

(Co-incidentally it's framed exactly the same way as a 2 panel Narrowband Mosaic I'm working on at the moment).

Yours renders the detail exquisitely, very well done Sir!

Same here. The bottom-right area would make a nice target for imaging in itself.

Very nice image Peter

Thanks guys...I have some health problems at present so individual responses to your kind comments are a little tricky for me right now.

With some luck I'll be on the mend soon and post something a little more new and epic
