Of course, as with most processing, extreme stretching of faint extents is a personal taste thing and will depend on how well you can mitigate noise and keep it looking "natural".
Make no mistake Paul, I reckon this is already a hum dinger of an image!

I did a quick extreme stretch of the JPEG and it is certainly there. I then did a bit more fiddling to keep Paul's original colours and (I hope) contrast.
