Additional image processing | Image was color corrected very slightly and brightness and contrast adjusted. The image has been cropped and expanded. Note the difference in color between this photo and the Ring nebula photo taken with the new Ektachrome 100 Elite II film. I believe the old Ektachrome 400 film is representing the color more accurately than the newer Ektachrome 100 Elite II film. |
