You've captured the subtle gradation from the intensely dark dust totally obscuring the stars behind, to the much more widespread but thinner dust which just changes the colour of what's behind.

Too right Marcus, certainly is rich, as I said to M&T that's 16 square degrees of wall to wall stars so evenly spread
