(Alain said to give the new form a test, so lets see if this works...)
I've made a couple of trips up to Red Rock to take advantage of it's dark skies this past month. The first trip I concentrated on the Orion nebula, a wide shot of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies, and a wide shot of the Orion nebula complex. I was quite unhappy with the later and returned to reshoot it(with a wider 30mm lens). I also wanted to shoot a narrow shot of the Triangulum galaxy but the battery on my sky tracker ran out of juice. On the way back though Mojave the CHP had blocked off the road for a truck carrying a very long, eh, something to the Mojave Spaceport.
Technical Note: The two Orion photos have the notation "LRGB Processing", this method of processing a photo separates the luminosity and the color in a photo and processes them separately.
