Beautiful image Mike! You should be very pleased with it.
Call if you ever want to discuss astrophotography... I would be happy to help if I can. I am no expert when it comes to handling DSLR images, but I might be able to help in some ways. If you want to talk, feel free to send me a private email and I will send my phone number.
Cheers, Tyler

So we ended up going to meet Jay, Matt and Jeff out by Vernon on Friday night. The clouds decided to hang out for a bit but they did finally clear. I will say itwas a night of galaxies with all of the big dobs that were out there. I had other plans and setup my 8" LX90 to take some pictures with my new Canon T3i. Mind you I am new at the astrophotography bug with only having started this last summer using a Meade DSI Pro. I took 10x60 L and 10x60 L using an OIII filter. I did not do any darks as it was 5am and time to go to sleep, as the last of the others went to bed at 3am. Still trying to figure out how to use my OAG and so no guiding at this point nor did I do a drift align. So I stacked using DSS but have no clue which of the 14 pics were used as I am new to this program. Maxim DL was used to stretch the image a little bit. These are .jpg's but I have the RAW's and tiffs and jpg's as well but some days I fell blind as I know no one who does this. I will say it is not easy learning this especially with out much input from club even though I have inquired about an APSIG in the past but was told it was tried years ago and did not work out so well.
Mike
