Description

Well, I don't really see a lion in this image, but I went ahead and made it "lion like" with the colors.  I used the NarrowbandNormalization process for this image and I just think the colors are remarkable.  I was able to accumulate some great exposures for this image with the L500.  The 30-minute exposures really make a difference in my eyes.  I'm under representing in the Sii a little, but I don't think the image suffered too much.  Comments welcomed!
