Jupiter - Opinions please

I had time to reprocess the Jupiter image I posted earlier and they look vastly different. I was just wondering which one people preferred.

The one on the left is the original processing:

Processed in Registax as is and resampled 2x with Mitchell on the final screen before saving.

The image on the right is the reprocessed one:

Split into separate RGB images and indivdually processed in Registax. Resampled 2x with Mitchell on the Optimise screen. Recombined in Photoshop before reloading into Registax for a bit of histogram stretching.

I don't know. I am leaning towards the reprocessed one on the right. It looks a bit more natural even though it is a lot grainier looking. The original image on the right looks smoother but it is a lot more contrasty.

Definitely the one on the right - the detail seems 'finer' - like it was coloured with pencils as opposed to crayons on the left

It is just like David's avatar above ... that more natural looking (ie eyepiece view) Jove is what grabs me.

It's amazing how good an image can look at 2 am in the morning when you are falling asleep at the computer. Then next morning you look at it again and think "That doesn't look that good after all, I can't believe I posted it"

I'm glad I took the time to reprocess it properly.
