Description

First Test of my Canon 200mm f/2,8

unfortunately this lens creates giant chromatic aberration at bright stars.

May be that better focusing can reduce this problem.

Title: Reprocessed: dimmed stars + more contrast for the nebulae

Description: The present period of bad wheather lets me reprocess a two years old picture: I dimmed the stars via EZ Suite in PI.
Btw:
My former assumption concerning the colourful halos surrounding brighter stars was wrong!
These halos were produced definately by the BZF 2 Filter, which had been mounted in the astromodification process.
