A gorgeous image bud tracking is spot on!

There's a bit of gradient going on, so I had a play... and half it's size . Hope you don't mind

[laser_jock99]

I think the gradient was mainly due to the low altitude at this time of year- just clipping the top of my hedge at the bottom of frame!

Nice shot, the reprocess has brought out a hint of the flaming star and tadpole nebulas.

Great attempt although the focus looks a tad out.

It would be really good though if you could really reduce the image size inline with forum rules, that way I can appreciate the whole image on my screen without having to scroll around.

Digz, just a quick FYI. If you hold 'Ctrl' and scroll the mouse wheel it should zoom in/out. 'Ctrl'+'0' to reset
