M8+M17 w/80mm Fluorite scope

[FOOTPRINT]

Hi All,
Had a go at the Eagle and Lagoon again with my new toy (Vixen 80mm F-8 Fluorite scope), looks like a good thing, nice sharp images, Im posting the original plus a cropped picture which shows how sharp the scope is even when zoom/cropping things still stay sharp, one has to have a win now and again I suppose, the colour looks O.K. too, well it does to me, I welcome any comments on the colour bit as its always a matter of choice.

M8- 2 x 6 Min. at ISO800, DF removed- guided

M17- 4 x 6 Min. at ISO800, Df removed- guided


cheers.......Jim

Nice Colouring... Looks really good to me. The Objects come up very well, more frames and it would look awesome.

May need a field flattener though stars near the edge look a little stretched.

Lovely images Jim, very resolved and sharp. The colour is very nice as well.

Cheers
