Kick in the Crux!

Hi all,
Clear night last week so decided to try some Crux widefields.
Thought it would be easy, but it's taken a while to process these and still get nothing too flash! Oh well...

1. 50mm Pentax lens @ f2.8, iso400 10x30sec exps.
2. 135mm Pentax lens @ f5.6, iso400 10x30sec exps and CA+++.

Stacked in ImagesPlus,processed in PS.
Tried to "bloat" the main stars Akira Fuji style to focus on the cross.
Don't know if it looks realistic or not - shout out!!!

Cheers
Doug
