Great details in that shot Paul. Bit on the green side colourwise but you've nailed everything else. Top work.

Hi Paul,

I wouldnt say its too far away (after all, it IS 12 Million Light Years away), that ED80 really picked up a LOT of detail, plus, its very representative of the eyepiece view of this galaxy.

Very nice indeed.

Kudos to you..

Cheers

Chris
