It has come through very large; better viewed at 50% screen.

That's a beauty Ray. What did you process it with?

Ta Kevin, I popped it into PS, dropped the brightness back to stop the
centre blowing out, adjusted the saturation a bit, and that's it. Sorry,
I forgot that I also clicked on sharpen in PS.

Looks good to me Raymo. hard to believe its a single sub.
agree with Kevin, processing looks a lot better than usual too.

cheers

Thanks Rusty; I actually took 3 subs each of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, and 60 secs, and tried stacking various combinations. For some strange
reason the results were all rubbish. The best of the three 30 sec ones
on it's own gave the best outcome. I'm going to soldier on, and see if I can get some sort of decent image out of the other frames.
