That is pretty clearly contrary to the board rules, Deadeye31.

Very nice shot, I have yet to try my hand at getting the galaxy in a frame but it very phototgenic. Lucky we live here instead of one of those boring elipticles or globulars.

Nice photograph, I wonder what you used CS2 for. Good choice of software by the way.
