Messier 11 the wild Duck cluster

[toxic]

16 x 300 sec rgb each
and just 5 Luminance out of 15 way to much gradient from street light and moon to be any use at.

all that being said put your sunglasses on i cant seem to tone this one down.

Wonderful image Chris.

Very pretty with the jewel-like feeling needed to make the stars sparkle.

You certainly seem to have a challenge with imaging M16 - good for you to try though.

I really like this image. The golden stars look great on the black background. There is enough room Around each one which makes it stand out so well compared to a globular. Excellent result.
