Really interesting image Bernard.  Shooting this object in the Hubble
palette is all the rage these days so it's refreshing to see a normal LRGB
rendering of it.  I love the framing and the field of view, I wouldn't
change it.  A minimum filter would go a long way toward taming down the
extreme density of the star field.  I like it a lot though - especially
because it's a regular LRGB image.
