Hi Brendan, that's a beautiful image. Very nice clean detail and the rgb stars look great. I'm shooting this at the moment in Ha but with a much wider fov. I'm hoping to add rgb to it when the moon is gone. I saw a beautiful image on astrobin of this area and there's loads of feint dust surrounding the Pacman which i hope to capture.

Thanks Richard. I don't have a wide enough FoV for the dust (to look other than noise) but I can see hints of it in my Ha. Good luck with the final image - and hope the clouds & moon clear off at the same time.....it never seems to work that way for me!

Brendan.
