Darrell,

Thanks for the feedback. I did get similar feedback for others so I dialed
back the saturation a bit. One of my weaknesses. I love color, sometimes a
little too much.

With all due respect, Bernard, I much prefer George's more subdued image.
To my eye, your rendition appears overly saturated - almost artificial.

As much of the art of processing these images is subjective, it stands to
reason that, like art, perception of the end result varies from person to
person.

George,

Yours needs some color enhancement and maybe boost the shadows.

Bernard,
I've imaged this object may times over the years but never got the
resolution and color you have achieved.  As bright as M20 is, it is a
challenging object to photograph.  Beautiful work.  My capture of M20 is
thru this link below.  Thanks.

Regards,  George Kolb
