An interesting GX field, lum only, trashed the color due to poor seeing.

Looks good. Interesting..um...well I honestly don't know what it's called around the 3 bright stars. Other than that it looks real good. What were the exposure time(s)? Keep up the good work.

Very nice Vince! You got some nice detail in the face-on spiral and picked up lots of smaller galaxies as well. I like it.
Cheers,
Tyler

That's well processed with good composition, Vincent.

That's okay, patience is needed for good color data.
If you feel the need to remove the star halos, here's a method:

Vincent,
Nice Image. Nice star field and well framed. Too bad about the color.
