The Man on the Vespa

The Man On the Vespa. A target I have never found a name for so I gave it one. Any one who has been to Italy and seen all the Vespa riders will know the sitting position. A few have heard me speak of this target but never really seen it quite like this. The Scope is in perfect focus why there is so much detail.

The Man Riding a Vespa


Man on a Vespa - Narrow band.


Narrow band and RGB stars in the Hubble pallet. I have paid homage to the Hubble pallet by not completely removing all the green. Add to the list of shot that make this up I even tried Sky flats so its a real long stack list.


At the very top of this shot is the outer Rim of the Tarantula Nebula one every one knows.
Enjoy the man like I have never seen before......and all the wispy details in the Background.
