Nice image there Tony.
I've used the Noels Astro Tools spikes before in PScs(presume that's what you used) if only to clean up bad tracking on my reflector before. One thing that's good about Noels actions is that you can tone done the thickness and extent of the spikes so they don't look too un-natural from within the action itself.
It's quite tweakable if you have a mess.
Perhaps these detract a little from the image a bit.
Humbley, JIMO of course.
Imaging gives us all an artistic license so it's a personal thing.
Thanks for sharing your efforts.
Cheers
Rich
