Hi Scott,
Interesting technique. This type of masking is usually used to combine exposures of different lengths (or ISO) to account for the high dynamic range of the object. You say that you have used a darker version of the same image to achieve the same result. To my mind, this would indicate that the detail you have achieved in the brighter areas of the objects was infact already there in the original images, but was most likely processed out in the attempt to bringout fainter detail. Is this what is happening here or am I way off the mark?
Cheers
