All ass kicking is much welcomed!

I dunno...you don't need kicking, you have just gone for the details and highlights. The stars look very nice and the image is nice and smooth...so the infernal :scared: "nice image" is quite an appropriate overall description :thumbsup:

Nice image Luigi :P

I see a face from an 80's horror movie personally at this sort of image scale/focal length. No cats :)

That's a very solid image. The tiny dust lane detail in that parrot-beaky thorny sharks-fin thing at the very bottom of the image is excellent.

Best,

A tough object, it rarely looks nice. Best done in full narrowband I think.
Your image is quite well done.
