Roland,

This M57 and the image of M27 that you and Trent did with the AP180 f/7 EDF are the only two images I can recall that show the outer fringing. I remember being amazed when I first saw the M27 image and the extreme fringing for the first time.

An impressive confluence of man, machines, and processing technique.
Well done, Rolando.
