Quick Horse head.

Just testing the EQ6 after adjustments.
Only 140 minutes Luminance after setting up at 1 am after i came back from a party
Luminance is 20 minutes each taken with the QHY9.
Just levels and curves at this moment (need to do it proper later in the year).

Very nice beginning of a super image Martin. Haven't seen much of your work lately. Looking forward to the colour version. All the best.

Martin,

You're on a winner here. Excellent detail and the Flame is very pronounced.

Think you need to take some flats, though!

Good to see you imaging again. It's been months for me.

Top shot Martin, I really like the composition, a few flats will smooth it.

Martin,


I'm not telling you what my new toy is, but the wife knows about it, just doesn't seem interested, only comment for that side of the bedroom,,,,

"why would you buy a black and white camera when you've already got a color one?"

Clouds all the way through to snake valley, count on it!
