Very nice picture Ralph: aren't you overheating that AP shooting out all these images? smile
Just a bit of envy man! Here it has been raining forever. Paolo and I live in the same country but he seems to be imaging from another planet (mosty likely the moon)

Ciao

Nice shot, with lots of detail. There's some vertical banding I see, and the galaxy is contained in a rectangular area that stands out from the border areas. Both are probably easily processed out. Neither detracts from an otherwise great image!
