Hi all. I tried reprocessing my Leo Trio image and I think it turned out much better. The reduced version is posted here, and the link to the full version is below. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.
Cheers,
Tyler

Very nice Tyler, there is good detail as well as color in the galaxies and stars. A real improvement. Did you use a different method to stack or just different post processing? smile

I definitely like the color better on this one. And you can see more "stuff" in the background. On my monitor the sky isn't quite as black though. I guess that is exactly where the processing gets tough - which do you chose?
