Dietmar,
Very nice trio indeed. I like the color that you got - particularly on NGC5985.

Thanks for the comments folks. I appreciate the comments on the framing. It was chosen a little wider than the earlier image on purpose. I think it was a good choice.

Dietmar,
Very lovely and detailed image. I think you dod a fine job on the processing. Your image makes me want to revisit this lovely cluster.

Nice one Jason. Looks like you got a nice rich saturation on the colors.

Nice one Charlie. I like the colors you got on this pic.

But you are not supposed to fry mounts - best of luck on the repair.

Outstanding Greg!

Out of curiosity, can you let me know your mapping of the Narrow Bands? By your order, I am assuming SII > Red, Ha > Green, OIII > Blue - correct?
