Fortunately, this image has ticked all the boxes above!

The detail is exquisite - the finger of God is sharp & clear, the tonal range is beautifully handled and there's lots of interesting bits for the eye to explore.
Ta Andy....agreed the subject is pretty vanilla....but at high resolution there is indeed much to explore. I’d also observe sub 2 arc second FWHM’s are testy little suckers...even the slightest error will stand out like Dog’s....err...like a dunny in the desert .

Seeing differences also become apparent when you want to merge/mosaic data fields...Much can and does go wrong at this image scale...that said, it’s a challenge that I enjoy.
