Hi group,

I just saw this incredible image from John Gleason posted on the AP Yahoo group. This image is too good to miss:

Rolando

Here's my latest work on 30 Doradus using our remote AP 155 EDIF and f/5 reducer/flattener from South Australia.

18 hours total exposure, with the FLI Proline 16803 OIII, HII, SII false color combine.

Cheers,

- John Gleason
