I actually appreciate your kick in the bum Mike, I deserved it
Hey I wasn't kicking you in the bum just slapping you on the back of the head
Look, and as you said, viewed at a size that fits on a standard screen and other than the perhaps over sharpened bright areas, it does look pretty good but when viewed at the larger sizes it looks more like a contour map really. Anyone who didn't bother to look at any of the larger sizes available on your web site there probably thinks I am being harsh ...little do they know just how much affection I have for you and your postcards Fred huh?

Gee Mike, now that I've finally found the 'sizes' icon on the site, you're totally right! Artifacts.
Sorry Fred... Mike, slap away!
(still a brilliant image at larger scale though without the artifacts/contours!)
A very intense area Fred, anyone who collects this sourght of data is impressing & Inspiring many others, yep Personally I think the Contrast adds a lot of punch, thats me tho, and I definately do Not have the knowledge or experience to say otherwise so, just saying another credit for ya taking the comments etc well, we all strive to improve eh
Thanks guys. Here is a repro. The initial link and thumbnail is also the repro now, the original is gone, cant have that swimming around anywhere, what a shocker!.
Colour is not on as it turns out, its a mess, it doesnt add anything attractive on this for some reason, just messier.
Agree. Not sure what happened before. As the saying goes, devil is in the details but it looked as though it had been to hell and back. Still stunned by the complexity of the scene being so busy with intricate features. Shame about the colour. Was looking forward to another signature image.
Yeah I like that better Fred. Sharpening is a touchy aspect of image processing I find. Usually less is more when it comes to sharpening as it usually is pretty destructive no matter what technique you use.
