Hi All,

This image was taken with 160EDF refractor at F5.7 with STL11000. It is just a small portion of the full image, upper right part resized to 1/2 size.

Roland,
Great Job! Very pleasing image to stare into; nice sharpness and contrast on the nebula features. The full crop also shows a very nice view of The Wall in NGC7000.

Congrats!

A great series Roland! Very crisp and well processed. What really impresses me is the stars. Perfect star shapes and very tight all the way to the edge, especially considering such a fast f-ratio. Also, the internal reflections from the brighter ones are extremely well controlled. Your setup is working very well.
