M8, Lagoon Nebula

Howdy again,
Here's another one from the other night. Was running out of time so only an hours worth of data. Could of used a slightly shorter exposure length to layer in as I nearly burnt the bright area out.
Thanks for looking,
Gray.

That is a pretty good image and does not appear burnt out to me. Colours look good from the modded camera.

This is a very nice smooth image Grey. Guiding and focus look very good. You could possibly sharpen a bit of the detail in the brighter areas by using colour range select and unsharp mask and make a nice image even better.

I don't know what Picasa keeps doing to my albums, but the link for this image no longer exists!
Sorry!
