Hi all. I finally managed to get a little more imaging time in on the nights of the 14th and 15th. I decided to try a new version of an old friend... the Leo Trio. I spent one evening collecting luminance data (160 minutes in 10-min subs), and another on color (60 minutes each RGB in 10-min subs). Here is a cropped and reduced version. The full version and equipment info can be seen on my website by clicking the link below.

Be sure to click the thumbnail a couple of times to see the full version. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.
Cheers,
Tyler

Thanks for the comments, folks. I was pretty happy with the color on this image. Its always nice when the color data actually adds to the image instead of detracting from it.
Cheers,
Tyler
