It is a very technical yet also artistic pursuit.
There are right and wrong ways to collect the data, and then comes the fun bit - the aesthetic processing.
There is no right or wrong way to colour an image. Some ways look better than others, but it all comes down to personal taste.
Nice shot Andy!

Yep, Scotty you nailed it! It's all very subjective - and it's an obsession you're quite right! Thanks for the thumbs up mate

Not quite sure how to respond Jen - but it was only two years ago that I felt exactly the same - hang in there, ask lot of questions here and the very nice folks on IIS are a wonderful helpful bunch that selflessly want to help one another get better images. Let's not forget how bloody hard this stuff is to do - but it's very rewarding when it all comes together

Personally I would not apply star reduction, at least not as much- I prefer not having dark rings around stars, but that is just me

Yeah fair call Slawomir - I was probably a bit lazy with the star processing - I'll have another crack soon. Mind you, given it's from the LP backyard ...
