I'm not usually a big fan of this target, but you've really brought it to life here, Rick. Great work.

Aha! That's a great tip, and something I'll definitely be trying out... I've only ever done one bi-colour but I really struggled to bring out decent colour comapred to what I see others doing with the same target.

Ta, Lee. Yes, the hue bending trick is worth a try especially if you don't have data from three filters (or the Sii is too weak to use.)

"Wow Factor" is definitely off the scale. Fascinating image. No more than 11 out of 10 from me though.....

You've brought out so many colours with just bi-color data.

Thanks, Allan. There's no reason why bi-colour should just be red and blue!
