Great video! Well, Judy is such a talent,. I first became aware of her about 8 years ago when she was working on a project I was involved with, and even then her work blew me away. Great interview Fraser. Was so good to be able to hear her share her insights and process with everyone.

Really like her work, including among many others her processing of NGC 2336. I'm surprised there is no APOD of this beautiful galaxy (or did I miss it?)

Judy Schmidt is one of my favourite Judy's in all of history. I was looking at her processing of Hickson 40 earlier today.

Judy's work is just fantastic and that was a great interview. Thanks for sharing
