Hi all. Here is another one from Thursday night. This was taken from Heber City, Utah, with the G-11/Sky90/ST2000XM combo. It is not on par with Tom Davis' great recent image, but it is a good start for me. I will never get those results until I get a focusing routine down. The image is L:R:G:B - Lsad10x1) Rsad5x1) Gsad5x1) Bsad5x1), captured with Maxim DL, and processed in Maxim DL and Photoshop CS. As always, comments and suggestions are welcome.
Steady Skies!
Tyler

Excellent. You got the wrapper around the "cigar" galaxy neatly.
