RE: [APML] M8-M20 LRGB using Jim's TP shot

Grant, thats an awesome image, and I really mean it.  Those tiny tiny stars,
and lovely reds (dare I say luscious?)  The blues seem to be very good in
the trifid.  Do you think that the supra film is better than the royal gold
400 for milkyway photography?

Recently, Jim Janusz let me play with his M8-M20 Tp shot.
(Man did Jim capture some awesome detail!)
Here is the resulting LRGB using my recent Supra 400 shots.

Some notes...
I used a core mask for both nebulas to minimize burnout.
I also used a slight unsharp mask.
Other than that, I didn't do any processing to Jims' shot.

Be patient and let all 3 images load (about 600k).
Once loaded, click on the image to toggle 2 close-up versions.

Thought I'd share with the list.  Enjoy!

P.S. Let me know if anyone has problems with the javascript code.
Some netscape users have reported trouble.
