Thanks. This is why I love astrophotography, it brings out detail that cant be seen with the eye, as well as colour, then to show everyone :)

Scott,

that is a lovely image. Nice and sharp, and has a mysterious haunting glow. It's like standing out on a lonely deserted road staring up in the vast sky. Well done!
