M35 and NGC 2158160 viewsM35 and NGC 2158, Open Clusters in Gemini, Maxim DL, CCD Sharp, Photoshop. Visually this is a beautiful star cluster that I first saw in Big Bear at an Indian Princess Winter Camp. This does not capture the magic of that night but it is still a nice image.

Saturn @ f3098 viewsSaturn, taken in a short period between clouds, with slightly different processing than the prior image. I sharpened in Registax using diadic ^2 curves settings. I think I got slightly better visibility of the rings and stripes. I also raised the black point in Photoshop, other processing was the same.
