M8 Lagoon 9 April

Lots of high cloud last night but got 15 minutes on M8 at around 3.30. This is my first attempt at processing with photoshop so any feedback greatfully appreciated. The full moon also made seeing difficult but that is part of the game.

Thanks

You've got to grab that bit of clear sky when you can Frank.
Nice work too, concidering the conditions.

Very clean and sharp viewed small, jumps out, but slightly zoomed in the res is disapointing, could you repost at say 190K?

Fred,
I will try to resize and resubmit. It is all a learning curve.
Thanks
