Re: [APML] M42 smoothed

Grant,

Your wonderful M42 was a temptation to try SGBNR on it. I think you'll like 
to see my results:

Here is the corresponding SGBNR 1.09 parameters file:

After SGBNR processing histogram readings were zero for the first 10-12 
levels, so I applied auto levels in Photoshop to keep contrast.

Keep up the fine shots. Best wishes,
