ASTRO NGC 6781 (large download)

We finally had a clear night! Will wonders never cease. This is the
result.

Sorry about the large download. The star field is so rich the blew up
the file size something amazing and I used the lowest compression level
I could without it looking awful. I didn't want to crop it as the star
field is as interesting as the planetary. The whole upper left appears
to behind a thin dust cloud, a thin dust lane comes in from the middle
of the right edge and angles down. By the time you get to the southeast
corner their the stars are really packed in. I put the nebula high to
try and capture this star field.

An amazing object, indeed. It's a good time to be alive. Thanks for posting
these pictures for all of us to enjoy, Rick (and others).

Beautiful picture Rick. Everything looks perfect.

A nice image of one of my favorite PN's.
