Awakening
Hi all,
Another image from my early wake up on Monday morning. Conditions were less than ideal. Strong wind and humidity rendered stars close to the horizon virtually invisible.
Cheers
Greg

As usual the fantastic framing and composition results in a sublime image.

I really love the colour on this one. Any way to view it at a higher resolution?
Cheers

Great shot and I love the colour
I think if I were processing it I'd not have let myself go so far with the saturation (eg looking at how aqua-blue the SMC is) but it does look good at this displayed size and saturation is often what my shots lack I think. Does it still look good at closer to 100%? (I usually find if I make an astrophoto too saturated it looks more noisy and lower quality when at 100% or close).

Thank you very much for the nice feedback Roger I have to keep slapping my wrist sometimes and remind myself to dial back the saturation. I have certainly been guilty in the past of WAY TOO MUCH. I tend to go a bit bluer in my images than other night scape photographers. It is just what I find appealing. My images are certainly not scientifically accurate in terms of colour range.
I find that the method I use to add a bit of saturation does not adversely effect the quality too much. I'll send you a message.
Cheers
Greg
