Thanks. This is why I love astrophotography, it brings out detail that cant be seen with the eye, as well as colour, then to show everyone

Scott,
that is a lovely image. Nice and sharp, and has a mysterious haunting glow. It's like standing out on a lonely deserted road staring up in the vast sky. Well done!

Same with nearly all lenses besides the 2.8 tele primes
Beautiful Image!
I like the tiny trifid & lagoon.
