M82 reprocessed

hi erveryone,

I have laboured very long this afternoon to get my M82 reprocessed.
I think it was worth the effort, at least I hope so...(-:

I was playing around with optimal size; going any further makes no sense.
this is the maximum of enlargement the image tolerates,...hopefully.

again the data:

9" f/9 TMB Apo @f/7
2,3 hours
SXV M25C (enlarged crop)
AstroArt4
PS CS2 (multilayer-mode)
PixIS (smoothening the background)

what do You think...?

thanks for looking.

best regards

Fantastic image Dietmar.
I personally would prefer a little more colour saturation but thats a personal preference.

Is it possible to coax a bit more red out of those jets? Levels/red channel and that area lassooed and feathered may bring out some more of the red jets?

Overall a fantastic image. I can see a lot of effort has gone into this and you've gotten so many things done right to get this.

Greg.

Excellent shot Dietmar!
Wonderful colors & details!
