Hi everyone

The last of the new moon images for this month. It's a bit on the pastel side of manley-wax-crayon colouring but you can see the difference between the reflection and the emission nebulae at least but I really hate when the foreground stars FWOABW  'push away' the nebulae, refractor style. I think I've traced it to a rather heavy hand on deconvolution... Still thinking.

Thanks for looking and please do feed back on stars, colouring or WHY.

700d @ ISO800

Looks great to me. I'm still waiting for the clouds to clear here so I can image again, it's been cloudy for the last 3 or 4 weeks, and at least for the next week 😭 It will probably be clear for me on the full moon 🤪

Maybe there was a large stockpile of dodgy 72mm department store reflectors with wobbly tripods and high resolution colour pictures of Saturn on the box in a warehouse in Hull. A second had car dealer bought the lot and he's doing a roaring trade knocking 'em out a 300 quid a pop on the black market. Yeah, that must be it.
