GUM 15

Nicely done Louie!

I can see quite a lot of dust surrounding the main nebula. The dark areas in Gum-15 are cool.

A couple more hours on this would really give it some more pop!

Sweet shot,

Beautiful image Greg!

The arms on this sure do look like they would be extremely faint,great job bringing them out.

What a great image Tom,

There are so many objects in this FOV! It must have been very challenging to process with so many different features and the dust of course.

I like the RCW 36 area you have outlined in the mouse over,it reminds a bit of the Flame nebula.

Superb job!

Hi Greg,

This one is just spectacular! It looks like the Ha added some nice pop to it.

Great job,

(OT) Have you seen the AP 3600 GTO in person?

Wow,what a behemoth!
I bet being up close really gives a better sense of just how huge that mount is.

I knew the 1200 was big before I bought it but when I unboxed it I had a much better understanding of just how big it is. That mount dwarfs the 1200 8O

Thanks for the pic Ivan,

Hi Tyler,

Nice job on this,it came out great!

I shot this one awhile back,it is a much tougher target than I thought it would be! Getting good signal to noise on the faint dust and nebulosity is difficult,it really soaks up the exposure time. I am wondering if Ha would help bring out the fainter parts?

Excellent work!
