a super image nick colour looks great

[Shibby]

Very pretty looking indeed, and nicely framed. Could it be rotated a bit though? He's dangling from the ceiling and I already find him spooky enough

[R Fisher]

Nice image Plenty of detail coming through, will be good to see the final image.

[Ant]

The more and more that I see that palette the more I like it... that's a lovely image the blues and greens are very subtle.

Well done Nick, will keep an eye out for the finished image!

I agree totally. The colours really work, the quality of the image is first class. One of my favourite deepsky images posted lately.

[NickH]

It's been a while getting to this stage, garish pink/magenta stars (as you'll see in a VDB142 image I have in an article) were an issue. Now focussing more on SII data quality, and duration, as well as really being fussy on focus, usually now spending a whole night just on one band..

Thank you all so much for the comments, it really does make it worthwhile

[Psychobilly]

Took me awhile to recognise him that way up..

Wizard work Mr. H

Interesting comment about critical focusing .. I think I might be onto something with the FFII on the Megrez 72... If ever I get round to using it again...

Peter...

[Shibby]

I wonder, does anyone adjust their focus throughout the night as the temperature chages...?

[NickH]

Yup

I watch the FWHM all the time (remote to the iphone using VNC), and if it drops for more than two sub frames beyond what I think is acceptable, I am outside to sort it out....hence a call I put out a few weeks back for a robotic focuser for the TMB that could do this, but ideally not cost £500 :-)

[barkis]

That's some Wizard. A kaleidescope of complimentary colours certainly make this a striking Image.

Good be Oscar material this one Nick .

Ron.

[Euan]

That's a cracker, loads of nice colours and detail

[MikeD]

Nice Nick.
