I love the composition.

Ross.

Thanks Ross. I feel like I'm getting better with each image, I really struggle with processing and knowing when to stop. One day no doubt I will just know, in the mean time I will rely on you guys to tell me what is wrong so I can fix it.

In the spirit of constructive critique I'd mention a couple of things. The colour is a bit on the salmon side - it needs more red / magenta / blue IMO. Hope you don't mind - I briefly messed around with the colour balance of one of your frames in Photoshop by way of illustration - see below. Opinions will differ of course as colour & saturation is mostly a matter of personal preference . Also wondering whether you can process some colour back into the stars?

Cheers, Marcus

Thanks very much Marcus. I wanted to image both these objects in the same frame, and I thought I might have been able to fit them in my FOV to be honest. When I realised that wasn't possible I had a light bulb moment.... why don't I make it a mosaic..... next thing I know I just dove in the deep end without thinking to hard, but all in all it's been a great experience and I thouroughly enjoyed the challenge.

Ah....the dreaded blue or lack of, seems to be a problem I have with my processing. I will have a go at adjusting it and try to get some more colour into the stars. Thanks for the feed back, I really appreciate it. I like your adjustments better than my original, so thanks for the example of what you were meaning. As long as people keep telling me what they think is wrong with my images I can work on getting better. It's really hard to get better if you don't know that something isn't quite right.

Along the same lines as Marcus has detailed, the image might be helped with some more blue..?

Great stuff

Mike

Thanks Mike, same comments as I made to Marcus above, thanks for the honest feed back. With time and more processing under my belt and you guys telling where I need to make some adjustments I will have images to be proud of before I know it.
