Rich,
That is grand mate, really grand.
Very nice colour balance and saturation. Highlights are soft and don’t look overly processed to a plastic appearance. I like the composition with the two diffraction spiked stars. I wonder what the object would have looked like if you had gone a more deeper (more subs or longer exposures – probably the latter). Though I do recall you mentioning your seeing conditions weren’t the best for longer exposures. Do you mildly blur your RGB information? This would assist in noise reduction in the fainter areas and you’d need to solely rely on you luminance for detail.
Look forward to seeing more of your work.
