Howdy Astro-liano's  -  Me's Got CS2     As my far unorthodox methods are at the moment, very exciting to revamp Images Terrestrial & Astro alike ?  Here is one of my 1st Digi 400d astro shots of the milkyway, Oct '07. My mount was another year away, so this  was done with the Barn-Door-Mount :

   18mm,  iso400, no noise reduction,  6 minute Single .

Love the scale Bob and wealth of info in your image. I was a bit baffled by that strong omission area near bottom left when i realised it was a tree.

It actally looks like an extreme close-up of another Galaxy

Cool banana's avaryone !

  Yep, commonly called the Omission Tree Neb, a dark mass that shows up well in wide angles if orentated the correct way Boof, simimlar to the great Pipe Neb in how it blocks the light from the distant parts of our Galaxy    

That's cool Bob!

Thanx Ken, I used an inverse selection and basically increased the contrast which helped seperate it from the surrounding sky, plus it also inhanced the blue stars throughout which I didnt really mind ?

Lets also not forget the Power Pole nebula, sometimes a keen feature to deal with.
