Dan,

Nice work Allan. I like your colours. I was wondering if mine was too blue. I was happy to bring out some of the Ha regions. The overall shape of my M83 is a bit more round compared to other versions. Maybe as I was able to bring out more of the outer halos?
Thanks Dan,
Yes - yours is more rounded.
I used more contrast than you when I did curves -
although mine ended up too black in the background.
I think in my processing that I reduced the blue to get that silvery colour.
I may have also slightly selectively brightened the arms to better
show the pinwheel structure & carefully blended it.
Anyway - yours is well done.

cheers
Allan
