Maurice,
That looks great despite the bloating!
I bet there is a way to deal with that in Photoshop,
I am not sure what it is though.

Nice!

I can feel your pain as well Dan sad

Great conditions are hard to come by for me this time of year.
I thought I may have some luck tonight after a fairly nice day but it started raining about 10 minutes ago.

Maybe tommorrow.

SXV H16 - review

Posted By Jason Boyce

That's a fine review Dietmar.
As your images prove,a very capable camera,maybe someday I can get a bigger chip smile

The difference in the dark frames is quite remarkable.My darks from the ST-2000xm look very similiar to what you posted.
I am currently using master darks made up of 18 subs 8O

By the way,your M13 image is just great!

M13 with MX7C

Hi Ken,
Nice effort!It looks good.Your focus and guiding both look good.
Did you do a DDP stretch on this or levels and curves?
Maybe try a DDP if you can or be a little conservative with your levels and curves to preserve the core smile
