Well here is the finished job, its 7 hours worth of data using the kit in my signature. I have had loads of very useful feedback on previous posts from the forum and thanks to all. A very special thanks to Roundycat Stargazers Lounge - View Profile: roundycat

for his invaluable input.

There is a slighty larger version here: http://www.m81.co.uk/deepsky/messier/M27.asp

I think this is far and away my favourite version of M27 that I have seen posted this year, congratulations. I think M27 really looks so much better in a widefield image, and you have captured it perfectly.

Your processing is spot on too, with the stars in front of/behind the nebula not being obscured by the nebula being over brightened and excellent star colours throughout.

Cheers,

Chris

Bravo. This is a lovely clean image with an excellent background sky (absurdly, the hardest part to get right!) and an excellent colour balance.

There is a lot to be said for listening to Dennis!
