hi Jim,

congrats on your nice first light image!
m81 is a tough target since clors are hard to get.
you did a nice job on her. also detail looks very good.

I notice quite some clipping in the histogram.
the histgram should look like a "bell-shape" image.
you can go IP4AP with Warren.
here is the link.
it is a fast and most efficiant way to get acquaintenced with Photoshop and processing astro-images.
