Re: [APML]First attempt at the Witchhead



Daniel -
An excellent effort on a very tough object!  You captured most of the nebula. 
When you look at the overall image, it appears too blue, but if you try and ignore the blue halos around the stars and concentrate on the background it looks pretty good.  Its the intense blue halos from the Megrez refractor that's throwing off my eye.  Got a M-V filter?

P.S.  How's Pinos doing?  Have they built the Tejon Ranch complex yet?  I missed not hanging out with the guys up there.  I always made a trip up there once a summer.

I'm not quite finished processing this shot yet, it has been one heck of an experience though.  It is three 60-minute shots through a Megrez 80 at f/5 on Super HQ 100.  I've been waiting all year to shoot this one.  Any suggestion on what I should do next would be appreciated.
