Description

Vers B is a complete rework as I didn't like the yellow / orange colour balance in the original which resulted from me trying to remove blue halos that were around almost every star. I think they were due to shooting through high coastal mist causing star blooming. In this version I split the galaxy from the stars and processed each image separately to remove almost all the blue star halos leaving the one bright blue star as I think that it adds something to the final image.
