Looks good. And I still like the links to previous images.

Sh2-155 Cave Nebula

Posted By Charles Hakes

Looks good. I think the "saturation" is often a monitor issue. I also like the bits of blue.

SH2-155 The Cave.

Posted By Charles Hakes

Very nice composition. Lots of stuff in there. I agree with your comment on stretching, but that also makes it fun to explore. You can always go back and add more.

A pair of M31 Satellite Dwarfs

Posted By Charles Hakes

Nice pair and processing. Good cores and star color. Sure is a challenge to make ellipticals more than just blobs.

Hammer

Really nice image. Your processing always seems to add an extra touch of contrast that brings out cool details. You mentioned both Ha and [OIII] - I assume this is just the Ha? Or are they mixed somehow? (Color version coming?)

M 33

Posted By Charles Hakes

Nice pair of images. Could be a monitor thing, but I think M33 could use a bit of color increase, with the Flaming Star a bit less. The balance looks right on each though. Thanks for sharing.

IRIS (NGC 7023) Wide Field

Posted By Charles Hakes

I like it. Definitely need to put this on on the list of objects to do.

M31 core

Posted By Charles Hakes

Very nice. I might have to include this as a target now.
