There is a lot of color out there that our eyes can't make our. The colors
that you see in your RAW images Steven are probably fairly accurate.

I have a Canon 10D and yeah, it is difficult to focus. I try to find a
bright star like Sirius, get a good focus and hope that I don't bump it
again. My biggest issue is that I am not patient enough to take the
numerous images that is required to make a great picture.

Steven this is a great early image. You'll be surprised at how much you'll
learn and your images will improve. You will look back at this image and
say to yourself, Wow, I've come long way. It won't take long and we all
look forward to seeing more images.

Great job and thanks for sharing.

Jayme
