This one proved tough to process.

I am now happy with it but it took a long time.

Greg,
Image looks really good. Processing looks good. This guy can be a tough object, but you make me curious about what proved tough to process.

It may have been tough to process, but the results are excellent. The data must have been pretty good for such a beautiful image. Sweet work Greg.

Hi Greg,

great image, as usual! I would like to know if you usually bin your colors or not.

Thanks

Nicely done, Greg! Color-wise, it looks a touch magenta to my eyes.
