Hi all. I have been working on the processing of this image for a while now, and I guess I am about done with it. This was imaged over a couple of clear sky windows on two nights in March. Exposure info and a full version can be seen on the "Latest Images" page of my website at:

http://www.allred-astro.com/gpage8.html

You can also see a previous version of the image, which I was unhappy with and decided to reprocess. This was imaged with my AP130 EDF F/6 and Starlight Xpress SXVF-H16 camera. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.
Cheers,
Tyler

Tyler,
Very nice - I really like the reprocessed version over the original. I am curious what you did in the second processing - particularly with the Blue channel. Did you just gain it up a bit or was there something fundamentally different?
