Assuming you used noise reduction or smoothing, I'd like to see a variation with a little less smoothing to see if some of the details within your image might pop a little more.

This time I used the noise reduction in Nebulosity rather than PS. I am much happier with it now. I agree, the last version was a little soft. Post Extras:       Pages: 1
