Looking for advice for improvement. Not the most steady seeing and some chromatic aberration present due to Mars being only about 35* above the horizon. Saw the earlier post regarding "nudging" the colors in Photoshop to get rid of some of the color shifting, but couldn't figure out how to do it. Anyone have a refernce for this technique? Any other advice.

Thanks
John
