Thanx H
pretty happy with it, yep. And apparantly 1670mm'ish, Camera Not modded in anyway, though I do use onbourd filters to kill off some blues that often show a bit too strong & personal custom settings I find helps at times, saturation, contrast, sharpness ect, I think most times they produces a better base image before processing ? Cheers !

Thanx & appreciate your Histo point very much Peter, I should check the histo more during processing, Lol, in fact, I found that that all RGB black point were still needing adjustment, though the Red was needing twice as much : )
Attached is a quick repro ? I did do a selective mod to the center, quite a dramatic change, but if you didn't or have another to compare, then, well, kinda Pops this area somewhat bettera ? ? : )

Nice job.

Lol Sandy, And Thanx much , , you have read correct, 4 subs at 300secs. The cooler winter nights help alot, I always use ICNR, and PhotShop Noise Reduction can do wonders if used carefully
Thanx again all , ,
