I appreciate that!<br />Cheers.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10701582923648225920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21427001.post-9943271789700729512010-12-04T23:49:27.264-06:002010-12-04T23:49:27.264-06:00Nice work, Phil!

I wrote up a tutorial on using layer masks to combine multiple exposure lengths of the Sword of Orion using GIMP. I can put it on my site if you're interested.RoryGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13200628155673456582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21427001.post-5050165225844180592010-12-04T15:05:11.713-06:002010-12-04T15:05:11.713-06:00Thanks, mate!

Most pictures I take through my ED80 seem to have blues come out really easy, sometimes to a point of annoyance. I need to find an object that doesn't have many blues in it to test this.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10701582923648225920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21427001.post-62980246409603227002010-12-04T12:19:57.762-06:002010-12-04T12:19:57.762-06:00That's excellent, Phil!

I had a hard time getting that much blue in the image with a DSLR. It's a much more pleasing presentation than the red my DSLR tends toward.Polaris Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572022039526168617noreply@blogger.com
