Description

Processed on Lufthansa 453 on the way to Germany last night!  Uploaded at Munich airport waiting for connection flight on their free wifi...nice.  This is a standard SHO pallet with RGB stars.  I used Bill Blanshan's RBG to NB scripts for the first time.  Lots of fun learning and tweaking.  In the end, I think the RGB stars are great in this NB image even though I might have reduced a bit too much...hard to tell on a laptop.   I'm a big fan of Bill now!  My 81GT with reducer framed this huge target up nicely and has good detail.  You know since I love the dark dust veins I brought them out as much as I could.  Processing on a laptop screen was difficult especially the color.    -john
