This is the king of globs and you did it justice. I'm not familiar with this object so I'm glad you shared it.

OT: How to save images for viewing on different mo

Posted By Cal Sandfort
Larry,

Using a calibrated monitor should help. Your images will then look relatively the same on other monitors that have a similar calibration.

However, I believe a properly processed image will hold up better on a variety monitors. I recently processed an image that looked good on my monitor. I then compared it to Rob Gendler and Russell Croman's images on several monitors. I noticed my image (poorly processed) fell apart while Rob and Russell's still looked pretty good. There's a lesson in there somewhere for me smile

This is great, Tyler! I also liked your M13. Both have a pleasing, smooth feel with nice star color.

Well done!!

First Guided Image--Yep, Another North America

Posted By Cal Sandfort
Sweeeeet! This is a nice shot. If you get some more time added to this it will continue to smooth out but it's great as is.

Guiding looks good.

Nice shots, Ron. It looks like your water drip is really attracting the birds.
