Great shots! Wait to you get playing with digital signal processing - like Photoshop CS2

Your original just slightly tweaked!

One run of levels (dark adjust), one slight signal boost (curves) of low intensity light, one tweak to make stars smaller - all up 40 secs work or less - imagine what a professional could do with under 10 minutes work on a shot like this!

The second shot is just a repeat of the above to further boost faint signals. The third again - the point is the more you experiment the you can tweak until you get what you like!

Scorpius too - looks a treat!
