THE BEST image I've ever seen posted here. This is spectacular Troy, congrats. Thanks for sharing your hard work.

I couldn't resist having some fun with this using Viveza. Wow, what amazing structure you've captured across this image.

Hey Ron, check out Troy's Flickr gallery(signature). Larger images can be seen there. All outstanding work.

G'day guys. Thanks so much for the kind words.

Steve - I'm truly humbled by your comments. I've mentioned before, it was your images that I saw posted here on POTN many years ago (before there was even a separate astro/celestial section, think it was landscape/nature back then?) that took my breath away and wanted me to get into astro-imaging in the first place.

Very kind of you Troy. I believe you and I as wells a few others back then played a role in creating a need for this section. I'm proud to have played a small part and very happy that we crossed paths here. You've progressed far beyond my skills, I hope to get back on the astro wagon again this fall and winter. I'll have to stick with my DSLRs for the time being as funds are limited. Keep up the amazing work, I'll be looking forward to seeing your latest.
