That's a beautiful image Francis I bet North Devon has less LP than us poor suckers in the Eastmidlands

That's beautiful Francis. I'll be back in the homeland on 2nd/3rd of July working with North Devon District Hospital. Crazy, I haven't been to that place since I was 16 and now I am going back to advise them on theatre consumables. Small world but at the same time so unbelievably huge at the same time as demonstrated by your image :)

Thanks everyone - a WIP but I'll stick with just the Ha and OIII filtration's on this. That will make life a little easier with the short nights

Loads more contrast in most recent image-more fine detail around the nebula too. I like the darker background star field also

Thanks Peter. Need to try and add more OIII to this as I think there's more in the envelope yet...
