Thanks Ken, This is the ha only blended into the red channel. I haven't quite got my head around the clipping mask yet but will have to look into it a bit harder. I must have another look at your web site tutorials they are great so thanks for making this available to us all.

Nice work

Thanks Mike, I found this area quite dificult to capture well let alone process but as my skills improve this is one area I will certainly revisit. I think more exposure is probably required and would add a bit more depth to the image. I might even give it a go with a mono camera as a bit of a comparison and see if the better sampling rate improves the image.
