Beautiful Robert. I can see the hard work, patience and effort in that!

Wow. Respect mate.

Baz.

Robert, I must say that your image is a great achievement, it is beautiful & you deserve it for all the extra effort you have put in
It is healthier to be mutton dressed as lamb, than mutton dressed as mutton!

QuoteRobert are you planning on adding any colour data to it?

It's tempting but it's another 6hrs worth of imaging ... the Canon might be worth a go.

Thanks Baz, I wish I had your skies !

Good image Robert and it seems you are also a perfectionist as well, so you up for the additional 72 hours to do a HaO3SIIHb to complete the image :-)

Then maybe another week for the LRGB, then you will have done it well :-), only joking :-)

RobertM

Thanks SD, I do try, was fortunate this time though it doesn't always pay off.   I would only do the Rosette again with a larger format camera, shorter focal length or much larger aperture (any combination would be great!).

In the short term - No way Jose !

I've now reconverted to jpeg thanks to both Jon and Mac's question and answer and the result looks much less washed out and more like the tiff...

Just had a look at the full sized photo, and the detail is fantastic. :o
