Well nice of you to say Murray
In the case of the LMC, at least for me, it is the field of view and portrayal of the abundant HII regions across the swath of galaxy that is the impressive bit and the reason I think all the versions essentially look pretty cool...if I had to pick though, it would be the last one becaseu it highlights the HII the best
The LMC is an amazing galaxy and I
first shot it when I was 18 years old back in 1986. If I had been able to produce what you have here back then...heck I would have been World Famous!
