Hi all-

I feel like I'm finally getting a foothold on this learning curve. I'd appreciate any comments or suggetions to help along. (Tyler -how did you bring up your red so much and stay color balanced?) :S

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,

That looks good from a focus and guiding standpoint, but the color data looks noisy. I suspect that what you need to do is spend some time learning your post-processing skills with Photoshop; I bet that you could get an awesome image from that much data.

You are off to a great start though--I am not sure my first color images looked that good 8O .
