Thanks Steve. This one was a bit more dificult to coax the structure detail out of it. I was surprised that even with almost 8 hours of exposure, the raw, stacked image displayed so little of the galaxy. As soon as I can get my True Tech SupaSlim USB filter wheel to work consistenly (it only takes one command and then refuses any more commands) I want to see if I can get some more detail using Ha.
Best regards,
John
