M1 with an HD 1100
« on: 2012 February 28 20:59:00 »
Hi,

I haven't produced any images lately but I'm hoping to change that. I was struggling with my camera (3 bad columns next to each other), lack of motivation, different hobbies and finally a broken wrist. I shot M1 late last year and now that I finally figured out how to fix that column defect I post processed it just to get the momentum going. It's a bit grainy but I decided that a poor image is better than no image so here it is anyway.

I have a couple more small stacks waiting for either a few more hours of exposure or a good shove to get them out the door. Now that it seems I have repaired my IMG0H it should be easier to guide. Of course the law of preservation of misery dictates I'll soon break something else. As long as it's not a bone :)

Best,

    Sander
