Sorry for the delay in getting this months round up to you but being away at Kelling and then coming back to house sale/move issues that demanded my attention got in the way a bit. But it gave the Kelling imagers a bit of room to process and post their images so lets see what we have this month.

 

There has been quite a few good clear spells so there are quite a lot of posts this month so I will do a précis of the images as usual.

I like the colours in Bottletopburly s double cluster

https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/16598-double-cluster/

 

So after much deliberation and comparisons, (it aint been easy this month folks), I have found myself looking more at the Elephants Trunk shot from Derbyshire Dave.

https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/16627-elephant-trunk-narrowband/

Why, I like the composition, the colours and the subtle processing, nicely done Dave
