Re: [APML] Antares in B&W




Scott,

That was my first reaction too - what a nice quality, how like a Barnard 
picture it looks. I think it's partly because it looks like a print 
which has been slightly sepia toned. Also the triangular aberrations on 
the brighter stars, radiating towards the centre, are reminiscent of an 
old large-format lens like an anastigmat.
