My second attempt with the 450d covering the Scorpius/Ophiuchus/Sagittarius border.  That may look like a gradient from the bottom left but the Milky Way  is very wide at that point so I suspect not, needed more subs though.

That's the best image I've seen taken with a teapot in a very long time :)

Looking forward to the completed image...

Yep - Have to agree with Ian Robert that is looking really nice. I much prefer this image to the Cygnus one... Really good,  John

Fay

Really nice Robert, I like this one better as well

Great holiday snaps Robert,

especially the one above and with so many MO's in one image, that could be one of Mikes challenges next, to indicate on the image where the messier objects are... ;)
