Cheers Conor Trevor and Dave, always nice to get positive feedback. With narrowband work you never quite know how people will take the final result, it's not everyone's cup of tea in the end.
Conor I am sure your effort will be fine and I look forward to viewing it when you post. I live in Newcastle Australia and currently image from heavily light polluted skies hence the predominance of narrowband efforts with this new Orion Optics (UK) AG12. The seeing is rubbish here though, only had one half decent night in the past 10 months of using her, so I certainly look forward to eventually getting her under a better sky so I can really open her throttle he he :-)

That is just plain incredible. Spectacular work here, Mike. This is quite possibly the best Rosette I've seen yet. Suffice to say, I'd planned on finishing mine in narrowband, but this will just put any future efforts to shame! Perfect processing.
I had a look at the other versions. Great details. Furthermore, that is some setup you have there. Whereabouts are you situated?
Well done Mike, one of the best Rosettes I've seen.
Sweet I like it alot
