Hi Colin. First time I have looked at it as well - quite an interesting object.

Thanks Steve, Totally agree on saturation - pushed it one notch higher than it should be to bring out the structure around the core and the starburst regions - it was very sensitive to colour. I have a version with more "natural" saturation, but it misses out on some significant detail (crop attached). Cheers Ray
