Hi John,
I may not know all the technical ins and outs of astro imagery, being (just) an astro-observer, but I know what I like.
And I like this image a lot.
Great work.
I'd have that on my wall any day.

Very nice John! Perhaps a tad brown? Could maybe use some blue. But a lovely image.

Nice one John.

Great data John. Check your color balance and clipping and you'll have one for the pool room. Well done.

Thanks Mike. You are right, the colour balance is off. Made an adjustment in DPP. Hope this is more pleasing.
