Description

I have been sitting on this data for about five months and decided to push it out before I get to some of the new targets' data. I thought this region had good structure when I framed for NB targets back then. Sure enough, S2 was detailed enough. 

Processed as straight up SHO.

Hope you like this result. Clear skies!
