M15 What do you guys think?

[Darien]

Hello all,

Last night I was on limited time so I decided to put the Fireworks galaxy on hold for till thusday and set my eyes on M15. This image was originally 26x150sec but stacked only 16 in DSS. Used Startools 1.3 and photoshop for post let me know your thoughts!

Cheers Darien

Well done, stars are nice and defined almost right into the very centre.

Great composition and colours. Really pleasing to look at.

Very nice!  I really like the contrasting colour in the brighter stars.

My advice would be not to black clip so much of your hard won data. The sky is ultra black and in discarding the data which would make it less black you have also discarded a lot of the faint outlying stars. There is also a need to look at the colour balance. The reds are good but the blues are tending towards green and you have that strange green inner ring inside the globular. I think that a gentler stretch with less moving in of the black point would be a good way to revisit this data.
