Hi Dietmar,
I have always liked this galaxy and your image of it is just terrific!Awesome detail in the dust lane and lots of other interesting faint fuzzies too smile

I am set up right now to try and collect some RGB on this to add to the luminance I shot a few weeks ago,not looking good though,the clouds just don't want to part for me :C

Good looking image John!You have some good details in there.
The learning curve is huge in imaging,first we have to learn how to get good data and then we have to learn what to do with it!So much to learn 8O

Processing has been the hardest part for me,a lot of hours have been spent staring at the moniter.

You may want to look at your color balance,on my moniter it looks a tad magenta.

Nice work,

Jason

That looks good Tom!
Flats work wonders don't they!I just started using them myself.
This does seem like a pretty bright target for a NABG camera,How bad are your blooms after a 5 minute exposure?
