Your links aren't working for me, Jason. Darn.

Not very good, I'm afraid. Loads of gradients, weird colour rendering,
red flaring and heaps of missing stars (where are they gone?). Most of
all, a very un-natural look. BTW, chuck those narrow-band filters.

That is implicit in making a narrow band emission line image - bright
continuum from stars will be seriously dimmed in this type of
photograph. I think the contrast in the dust clouds is fun.

You might want to view it on something other than your cell phone's
256-color display if you're seeing gradients and weird colors -- the
image
looks great on a proper (calibrated) display.

You might want to shut up as I am using avery fine (they say) SONY
Trinitron 21" monitor. As for looking great you got to be dim-witted to
say so, gradients or not.

With 2 hours integration (or more) per channel? You must be kidding...

Good job!
I really enjoyed the image you posted.
I was wondering how much the CCD camera put you back?
I am a newbie looking to get into astro-photography and am looking for
the best equipment that wont break the bank

At $6,780.00, that one might break the bank.
