I wish you would do more work KK, the frequency of your images used to be quite high.

Very good image of the Crab remnant. I suppose if any life had survived on a planet in the vicinity of the Crab's Pulsar,

A nights viewing would show multitudes of Veil Nebulae.

Hi KK

Lovely detail in that one. Thanks for sharing.

Very good image of the Crab remnant.

Must have been one hell of a crab!! :shock:

That's a really super image, KK - been a while since I've heard chat of this fascinating object, and even longer since I saw one of your fantastic pics.

Awesome shot KK - the intricate pattern of the filaments (is that what it's called?) is quite amazing.

[trevboyd]

That's a great pic, KK! Like others have said, good to see your pics back again!

I wish I could Ron, but the cloud free nights are few and far between here. Tomorrow's supposed to be clear, but there are some heavy duty winds predicted as well. I'll try to pull my socks up in future.

It was really nice to get some imaging done, even if it was only three hours worth of shed time before the clouds turned up. I did discover that my polar alignment is still poor, which I put down to not

Thanks for the nice comments chaps.

Beautuful capture KK I love the filamental detail you can really imagine what the explosion would have been like from this shot.

Great crab KK. Hope you manage to get some more shed time soon

[barkis]

If colour data could be added Kaptain, I would bet on one of the mags. taking that one, but even as it is, a discerning editor should see the mono as print worthy. IMHO.

[beamish]

good to see you posting, a real cherry too !
