[APML] first attempt at scanning, processing, and stacking

["Phillip Jones" <starfest@comcast.net>]

This photo represents a first for me on multiple fronts:
http://www.ruckuseffect.com/astro/horsehead.html

First attempt to:
- photograph the Horsehead
- scan with my new Microtek 120tf film scanner
- use RegiStar and stack two scanned negatives
- use PhotoShop for adjustments and layering
- use newly purchased CS version of PhotoShop
- present a photo to the APML list

Constructive criticism/advice is greatly welcomed. I think the flame looks a
bit florescent, and the blue is missing around the star. I tried playing
with the blue channel, but couldn't bring it out enough.

-Phil
