I'm not quite sure what happened here as the camera drifted quite a bit during the session.
These two look like they're in a dance around the dark part near the center, kind of strange the way it's worked out!
From the imaging run last night I managed to get 19 x 600s of almost usable subs so here it is:

Very nice Robert! Conditions were really good that night for around here and you've clearly taken advantage of them. Your image goes pretty deep. I love all the "waves" in the background.
On the annotated version, why doesn't the Tulip have a reference? And does Do4 have a more familar name?

Thanks Mark. I used MaximDL for the overlay but it gives less detail when zoomed out; I'll see if I can stitch together a closer version which shows the Tulip designation, from memory I believe it's a Sharpless object. I'll also check out Do4, I'm sure some American has given it a name somewhere ;)
