Thanks John. I know, I just wish it didn't take so much exposure to stimulate the OSC sensor!

The only advice I can offer is to crop the left-most 1/4 of the image so the dragons are more centered in the image. (Then again, use of negative space in terrestrial photography is a useful composition tool. So I'm all confused now...)

Oh, and Happy Friday!

Thanks Steve, gotta love Fridays, I just wonder if they'll feel the same when I retire. To be honest, this was just an experiment with the camera to see what it's capable of. I know what you mean, it does look unbalanced. If I had intended to use the data at a later stage I would have rotated and centred the image better.

Now come on Alex, you know you can and do produce some great images. No need to wish with your skills and experience.

Thanks Dave, the beauty of working with a B/W image is you can make dramatic changes without ruining the colour!
