Hi Tom, that's a great shot! I particularly like the detail you've achieved on the 3rd smaller pillar to the right and the isolated dark globules. I wish my first attempt at the Eagle had come out like that
I also use a DSLR for my imaging, (Canon 600D, un-modified) and initially I was a bit dis-heartened with my results. After researching more on processing, I realised that my images often contained a lot of hidden data that didn't appear on the first pass. I hope you don't mind but I took the liberty of saving your 1st image and ran a quick process on it to see what may be lurking beneath (see attached). You have quite a bit of extra detail hidden in your image, which means your sub-lengths are on track
Very impressive, looking forward to seeing more
Cheers, Evan
