Here's one I printed for wall hanging

Its the Perseus Double Cluster. You can easily see it with even binoculars or a small telescope so its easy to get a good shot. I've just always liked it since it was one of the things I could see with my first "toy" telescope as a kid.

Haha the original is 79x68 or so inches at full scale. I used a NASA trick called the debayer-drizzle algorithm. It somehow doubles the image size and retains the detail actually sharpening it a good bit in the process. Who knows how it works, but my computer hates running it. It wasn't really necessary for that image, but I wanted to be able to print it at minimum as a 12x18 so I wanted to make sure it would remain sharp.
