Fantastic images. I know I don't have detail like that in my images waiting processing.

My seeing just can't begin to show that detail. I seem to have a jet stream overhead when its clear. Last night it was running 4" FWHM between clouds. But we are short your mountains. I'm only about 375 meters here atop a 15 meter hill.

thanks idav and RickI was just very lucky in the very night I imaged that couple!
also I am even more lucky since I almost never have to deal with colro gradients due to lack of stray-light at my place.

Absolutely exquisite. I can't believe the detail and colour and I can't think of a sufficient superlative.

Kind regards
Matt
