Image of the day

I love the image Rolando. I generally don't think of going after the Crab with a refractor. But then again, I don't have a 7 inch refractor.

Nice job.

Rolando,
Nice cluster image. I love these two clusters in the same image field - they are such contrasts in age and distance.

Maciej,
I like the image. Those are indeed very challenging objects you have targeted. Nice processing on Rho Aurigae.

Nice one Eric. Interestingly, I have the "Philippine Nebula" in a wide shot of the Christmas Tree I did recently. I only had a part of it and not with the same resolution and detail you have, but I did not know I had it until your posting.
