It looks a little like M45 this, i would offer advise but i think it's rather nice and has it's own style which is great.. Keep it up Alex.

Out of interest, which one of my 2 Milky Way astroarts do you prefer - the red one or the blue one (a question phrased like the Matrix ). I have asked 2 people which they prefer - one said red and the other blue!

The feel of the red one is better IMHO.. James -------------------- Cloudy Nights Astro Art Moderator. Astro Chat - Co Admin LX90 mounted on HEQ5 goto Mount.

I prefer the red one slightly since I think the brushwork is a bit better in that one - the transitions from brighter areas to darker ones are more subtle in the red image - but both are quite nice. -------------------- Matthew IDA member XT8i, 10x50 binoculars, lots of eyepieces Post Extras:       Thick_asa_Planck Dark Sky Hunter Reged: 09/04/04 Posts: 3341 Loc: UK Re: Another Milky Way Shot [Re: ForgottenMObject]       #569163 - 08/22/05 01:44 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Thanks again Matthew for your kind words.
