Description

1st attempt to tease out and "manage" the IFN around M81 and M82...I've found this very difficult when trying to maximize the low SNR areas, control noise and create contrast--these things just don't like to go together. This is my first published version, but likely my 10th time processing and scrapping my earlier results...
