Very nice and subtle processing, yet the detail still jumps out. Just beautiful.
I'm still going through mine, been busy today and haven't had much chance to process anything
Damn fog ruined my perfect night but still some good data.
Can't wait to see more from this mornings session.. And more to come tonight!

Yep, I like that a lot. The smaller detail is oozing out all over the planet.

Anthony, sometimes words fail. I feel I could gaze at this one for an hour and still be finding new flecks of detail. Truly amazing
