Ventured out the other night, not recovered yet!  i really wanted to do some OIII for The Heart, but it is still too low & in the tree at the moment.

I processed it but the darks were too old. So took 6 hours to do a new set!!

That is so cool Fay - really love it - Seems like you haven't lost your acquisition or processing talents despite the lack of practice - Well done - John.

Really nice Fay. Can't wait to see it once you've added some colour data.

Another great image Fay, and don't listen to these amatuers telling you to add colour. :!

They don't appreciated the beauty of a mono image. ;)

Keep up the excellent work.
