Jafo

Howdy,


Been terrible weather and poor skies for imaging. I'm sure most would agree.


Anyone remember Blue Thunder the movie. Well, this image I've dubbed as JAFO, can you work out what I mean.


I tossed half the L and R away, most the B and G were quite usable and even then it still looks little blurry in places.


It is what it is.


Details with image, larger view can be had by using the size buttons at the bottom.

I hope there is something you like here.


Cheers and clears.

Not much you can do about the seeing, and maybe a smidge too magenta but a tidy M42 just the same.

Nice one

Thanks Peter, that is very kind of you.

I'll have bit of a fiddle with the colour. Someone else in another world said it was too red. I wonder if they meant magenta?

Hey no worries mate I think your colour is definitely in the ballpark, any suggested variation is going to be mostly semantics really I recall Marcus Davies M42 had a similar colouring and it did well at ROG a few years ago
