Decided to play with the data I have. The main backbone of the image is 7 hours with the 585mc pro. I extracted the L channel from this data and combined it with 3 hours of L from the 2600mm. The result was a combined L, and I took the colors from the 585. A great warm-up for the brain, while I shot a little on the mono of the Iris, and my hands are always itching.
