Milton,

Comments and suggestions are always encouraged, I know I need help!!!!!

Anyway, thanks for the input, I'll see if I can figure this out in the next few days.

Hopefully I can eventually post an improvement.

Thanx again,

Paul

Hi Paul;

Good attempt. Nice detail.

I think it needs about 2 times as much blue though.

Color is subjective, but I think these versions are closer

and the rings come out closer to bluish white or a very pale yellowish color.

Not a criticism, just a suggestion..
