Jason, Tyler, Jeff,
Thanks for the kind comments.

Tom,
Thanks for the image link. I remember that image now. I was back just a few weeks I believe. Its a nice capture of the bright Coathanger next to the Dark nebula.

Floyd,
Cool image. It is nice to hear that the focal reducer works well on this scope. That makes me think that the AP reducer may work as well.

Roland,
That's a really nice image you and Gilles came up with. Congrats to you both. I like the detail and I like the composition of the two objects in the field.

Really nice image Floyd. Looks like the AT8RC and the TV reducer work well together.

M8 region

Posted By Jim Thommes
Tom, the details came out very nice. I think different objects and different data requires tailored processing. I think you processed what you wanted to show and it comes accross very nicely.

I like the M8 blue halo.

Iris in the Dust

Posted By Jim Thommes
Thanks for the comments guys.

I am beginning to appreciate that different subject matter can suggest variations to your "normal" processing workflow. PS Actions and other automation tends to perpetuate the routines. I am glad I tried a few different things with saturation, levels and filters on this one.
