Very cool! Those are both good representations of the visual appearance...if someone asks "what does Uranus look like through your telescope", show 'em these!

It is a beauty, Floyd. In the same vein as Sam's comment, if you had produced that image, say, 10 years ago you would have been jumping for joy! Now you consider it so-so? I understand completely!

Nice processing there. Nice stars in the corners with that scope! What is your final f/number with the reducer?

The Blue Tree

Wow, Tom! If you were going for depth, I'd say you found it! I don't think I've ever seen an image that shows that extent of the dust. Very cool!

That is cool! I'm trying to imagine what it would be like to be standing there when that happened...probably wouldn't be standing!
