Description

After a long time just using DSS and PShop, I took the plunge and went for AstroPixelProcessor and there are a lot of things to like about it. Seems like APP is not as fast (may need to reset my PC settings) - but I like the layout and the workflow organization and there appear to be tons more options and benefits to it. This was literally my very first use of it - so there is much to learn.  Did some minor post proc. in APP but still tweaked the image in PS. Details:
