Andy I personally think this image, is the best image you have [produced to date the clarity and detail is simply amazing the whole image may be just a simple one but they all look like gemstones an a field of black velvet. Would you consider in the up coming meetings to give a talk about your equipment and how it all functions??? Jerry :shock: :shock:

Andy, this is one of the images I'm submitting to the Dan Yorke show, as it'll be one of the things we may be viewing on Astronomy Day. Thanks.

Exquisite image, Andy. Just amazing how you've pulled out the subtle colors of some of those stars. I think it's tough to make globular clusters exciting, especially if they are not called Hercules or Omega Centauri, but somehow you've managed to do it. :lol:
