Colours are absolutely beautiful! And that star cluster, man what brilliant reds.

And that's why I like diffraction spikes!

love the starcolours in the cluster,
the ring in the lmc shot looks fascinating..... and before anyone else says anything i like the blue nebs

good to see you guys spreading your targets and trying different things youve tackled quite a number of interesting objects lately.

just one question.... widefield.... is this through the 8 inch or something else?

Cheers Alchemy

Image was not composed properly, so Barb cropped a little of the top of the image so now it looks like a widefield.

I like your Mag cloud region shots, they have a feel of the old film days about them for some reason?....nostalgic?

You have a nice collection of good images building up on your web site

Thanks Mike. We appreciate your comments. We're trying a selection of different objects to image to see what the 40D can do

Thanks Andrew. The natural spikes from the Newt add a lot to our images we're happy not to have to put false ones on
