Sorry about so many one after the other - hope that you can (and will) use the links to have a closer look at the images.

Stay safe all.....

Great images Brendan.

What do you use to generate the sky maps under each image?

Michael.

Astronomy.net at this link....

Just create an account for yourself and then send (JPEG) images - one at a time - to be solved. When a solve is completed, the results page will have the details for your images....including the little Sky Maps. These I just copy to my web page.

Goodness me!!! These are incredible images Brendan. I was delighted to discover that your image of the Jones nebula was awarded APOD by GrAG - truly deserved. 

I can't believe how life like the Dolphin nebula looks - very well done on producing that image too.

While it is difficult to pick a favourite one, I think I like M78 best. To me it looks like a portal to another world. And the contrast of that orange star against the darkness near NGC 2064 looks amazing.

Great stuff!
