RE: [APML] now what?



Tony, nice contrast.  Did you use an unsharp mask to darken the dust lanes like that?

Hi once again,
 
   Last night I noticed that the graph on the STV was much smaller than previously... I was shooting 6 - 20 minute shots of M51... the seeing got better and better as a marine layer invaded the Sacramento valley. When I processed the image from this latest series, I became speechless... there are at least 50 small galaxies all around M-51, and the detail in the galaxy looked like something out of a "pro" scope, not some little 14.5" Cassegrain holed up in someone's back yard. I don't know what else to say, you guys take a look at it...
 
 
    Have a good one,
 
         Tony
