Nice Martin.....another favorite

Really nice and dusty region. It has been well handled.

[Placidus (Mike and Trish)]

Lovely contrast between the blues of the reflection nebula toward top left and the more warm colours toward bottom right.

As others have already said, nice handling of the dust lanes, just the right degree of contrast.

Nicely done. I particularly like the framing.

Greg.

[topheart]

I agree!!
Picturesque indeed!
Cheers,

Thanks Louie Colin Mike Trish Greg Tim
for your feed back Astro imaging is a trial but enjoyable that you cant
see visible through the telescope you need the camera.

The T-Rex stands out very nicely (well, I reckon it looks like a T-Rex!).

Definitely different to the usual bright yellow versions. I like it.

Good work Martin, the contrast in colours between the different regions is awesome.

[willik (Willik)]

Thanks Lewis thanks Bill for your feedback
I must be doing something right

I like the details and composition but something's going on with the colors. Looks like there's a gradient from blue to red in your field from left to right. I know the area is colorful but it's not usually that clear cut.

Actually I know what's going on now. You must have made a meridian flip in the middle of your data acquisition but you didn't rotate 180 degrees some your subs in the stack. You've got extra stars in the neb small cluster on the right hand side bottom at 4 o'clock that I suspect should be on the top left.

HI Mark good to point out i did not notice
the mistake i stacked the lum and RGB 30 LUM and 30 RGB all to gether
but the LUM was done on different nights i should have stacked them seperate
and blend them together in photo shop you learn by mistakes strange how it works.

No worries. We all do that mistake once. Your colors should sort themselves out when you correct your orientation.

HI Marc fixed that problem there was another star added with star and spikes software all is good.
