M106

I have fought with the processing of this one for way too long and need to give up for now... I collected LRGB data but was never happy with my color processing so I will post the luminance for now.

It's a little dark on my monitor, Eric, but, other than that, I like the processing. It's natural and not over-done.

It looks good to me. The main thing is that the processing looks very smooth and natural, which make the image very pleasing.

Thanks for the comments Dan, Peter, and Tyler.

I gave one more shot with the RBG data and came up with this. Plenty of stretching required a lot of noise reduction to compensate for the Denver sky glow and I hope I didn't go too far. This version is reduced to 80% of original.
