I love M81 and you've got some good data there.

For my taste me it's a bit too much of the "Robert Gendler" style of processing i.e. if you captured any colour then flaunt it!

Lol, to be honest Mark, I could not get rid of the blue in the galaxy, and in the end went on line and found many other images came out blue, so I just went with it.

I do like colour though.  You will notice I rarely post mono images, they just feel unfinished to me.

I concur with Mark comments but a very nice image in its own right - John

Thanks John.
