Pumping them out there Mike - Very nice indeed!
I love the subject matter and would like to do some myself soon after I get some of the loud & wide nebula stuff out of my system for a while (if that's possible).
BTW, my view is that striving for "perfection" in many ways is not seeing the forest for the trees. I see the forest in your image Mike!!!

Very)HO a little less noise
would make a difference in the full res image (where you invite us to look at the trees) but understand the difficulty in doing so when there's a preponderance of dark background. Yes, alas, I am a bit of a noise-a-phobe. But hey, I guess my forest is a pure pine plantation ... no oaks or eucalypts messing things up
.
Thus ends my painfully long & cliched analogy
Visit Wiruna again soon so we see some more!
Cheers, Marcus
