Ok let's put it to a vote !

I've been processing an image of ngc2070 from last night and I'm a bit torn between 2 versions ... lighter vs darker background.
I happen to like the lighter version because I think it shows more of the subtle outer lying nebulosity and also some of the dark lanes between the stars but I know people on this forum seem to always like darker backgrounds.
So which do you prefer light or dark ?



By the way this was taken with my FLT110 ofcourse ... 4x600sec plus 4x720sec ... total of 1 hour 28 minutes ... all @ -8C ... it was a warm night here last night at the time I did the imaging.
