16 x 600 seconds, 5nm Ha with the 250mm RC@f5.1. Unfortunately the focuser had some saggy moments causing a little rotation and that's spoiled it a bit.
I like the nice swirly bits around the dark pillar top left.

Nice image Robert. You have to love the dark nebulae, and also the way the nebulae looks like it is folded cloth with the different shades and densities.
That's come out very nicely! Quite a few areas of interest in there.
Thats very nice Robert, i also like all the intricate swirls etc.
That's really nice. I particularly like the giraffes head on the right hand side.
Very nice Robert
Very very nice. I like the mid-right - very 'Pillars of Creation' with a black dog falling towards it.
Lovely image Robert, looks like the new scope is working out well.
The scope definitely works, I will say though the image looks a little flat, not soft. Almost as if a noise removal routine has been used.
I know what you mean, I think it's more than likely the stretching. I might have another go if I get time.

I've used a high pass filter before to get the detail out a little more before when I have had that result, it kinda works.
Very nice image Robert
Lovely and smooth Robert.
