Hi all,

Lrgb image of m101 taken with televue genesis sdf and a ST8-E 60:15:15:15 minutes. There are some gradients from light pollution I've had a very hard time dealing with ..this is the best so far.


clear skies,

Nicely done; a dee pimage of a dim customer. The only issue is the gradients; mastering that will come with experience.

hi all,

Thanks for your comments.

Yes gradients are very hard to master,espicially if they are multidirectional. I bought the gradient removal plug in and that is helping a lot. I'm still on the learning curve with it ..but expect i'll will do better.

Now, if only i could move that ski resort and nearest city wink.


clear skies,
