This was taken around the first of Febuary from my driveway in NJ. I've finally have gotten most of the kinks worked out of it smile

. There are still some black pixels in the image but I think this is as far as I will take it.

Brian,
Beautiful shot, and processing. You really managed to bring out the small formations well, always my favorite part of this object. Thanks for posting it.

PS: Nice to see another MX716 user in New Jersey!

Sweet image Brian! grin

The resolution of the brighter filaments within the nebulosity is very nice.

Great shot. The black pixels don't detract from the overall smoothness at all, and can easily be selectively smoothed if you wanted to.
