The one shot color balance seems to have missed on this one as it is way
too red on my monitor. Might be the very short exposure time. I used
50 minutes L and 45 RGB and it wasn't enough but it was a night of super
seeing which I've not had since so until I do I won't be redoing it.

With more exposure you should pick up Holmberg IX a very weird dwarf
galaxy the subject of one paper at the latest AAS meeting down Austin
way last week.
