Description

This is a close look at the ever-popular Leo Triplet with my RC8.  Ideally this would get more data (the background suffers in my LP zone) but I also did a wide shot of this target and, at the end of the day (night?) one can't do everything, especially with the meager amount of clear skies we're getting.

Description: Reprocessed with new tools:

* Original suffered from flat issues stemming from reflections. GraXpert helped with that. Also star removal with StarXt was vastly superior to the orignal version's Starnet2.

* Improved stretch with GHS.

* Lesser but still important improvement also noted on RC's BlurXt and NoiseXt over the original procedures.
