M101 tweaked

Just made the colour balance a bit better plus a few other minor things.

Cheers

Hi Steve,

It still looks too reddish in the core and no blue in the arms which is usually how it looks. More of a slightly yellow core and bluish arms.

I think the problem is that the exposure is too short for reliable colour balance. I'll have another look if I get time My northern hemisphere colleagues say it is a hard galaxy to process.

Thanks Ross. I'm told by my northern hemisphere friends that this is a tough galaxy to process. It would help I think if I had a lot more data.

Cheers

Steve
