Hi Mike, ah the joy of quality avis, both a pleasure and a curse in the work to follow
. These are beautiful, you got some real quality detail here.
I looked hard between the two, there may be the ever so slightly sharper view on the first.
One thing intrigues me is that you're running 7 iterations of LR deconvolution. If I did this it would be as dark as coal witha bright ring around the outside. About 4 iterations is the most I can ever push an image... there's something not quite right in my routines.
Look forward to the rest.
cheers,
