Fay,
Lovely detail in that one and some excellent nebulosity. It's very tightly cropped - it's just a shame you can't fit the whole cluster in a single frame. I suppose the only other thing you could have done is a mosiac but that's a bit of a pain.
Nice one!

Mark, my rgb went a bit off line, so I had to crop a bit heavy.
looking at these images, make you want to permantly move to dark skies.
might have to persuade Rhonda to move to cornwall.
Sooner rather then later.
Very nice image.
Hi Fay, it's showing lots of lovely nebulosity and in only 9 x 2 mins - unbelievable ! I'll like to have to have a go at this myself but it won't all fit in my fov either :(
I should have used the Focal reducer & wo zs66.
John has done a very nice one of M45.
looks a bit grainy?
I have reprocessed M45. It was only done quickly in France. I think this image is not so cropped, & is smoother

That's much better ...
Thanks Robert, I'm glad about that.
Wow! Lovely Fay.
Thanks Mike, really pleased about that
