Description

A closer look at this object to go with our widefield from the Samyang 135.

Imaged with Paul Kummer using RASA 8/ASI2600/Avalon Linear.

Processing note.  On this kind of target I tend to use Photoshop's Equalize adjustment for a masked stretch.  Once partially stretched I make a copy layer, add a layer mask and copy the image onto it. I then equalize and blur the mask and stretch through that. If, like me, you still work largely in Photoshop, this is a useful method. On other types of target the mask can be inverted.
