For the time you have spent on the image some take hours and hours days
weeks and you took the image in just over two hours it only goes to show what you can do with the right equipment with out spending to much.
and that is a very good image of Thors Helmet well done Diego.

Nice colours and detail Diego. Nicely presented palette always gives a great impression on a target. Saturation is just about perfect in my opinion.

Thanks so much for the comments guys, i would like to go deeper on this target to show up more details and faint stuff, i am working hard to process better stars, better backgrounds and show the best color i can, every new work takes longer to process, i thing my workflow is getting long and complicated but maybe it works.....

i am still far away from my goals but i really like this one.... your comments are important to me............. a lot...

Thanks.
