Newbies second post M-16

This was the 2nd image from last night.This and M104 are two of my favorite objects. 10x600secs guided with star2k. I'm still trying to figure out the color balance trick. Comments, tips and image tweaking are always welcome. Thanks goes to Lance for all his help and motivation. Thanks for looking!!

Other than the color balance you have a nice shot here.
I wish my first were this good. :-)


Here is my stab at the color.

Ken, excellent!
(I love purple too, but I think red is the right color... hehehehe)

For a "newbie", like you call yourself, you are bringing some very nice shots, my friend... keep it up, as practice makes perfection...


Clear skies to all!
