Description

The framing was too close and unbalanced with this Dark Sight RGB image and the stars were terrible though not as bad as Running Man, so I reconstructed the bottom to fit better with the top of the frame and reduced the Bxt on the stars.
I really like the color and all the extra subtle nebulosity showing here, that is not often seen in most images.
Thor's Helmet is not possible to adequately capture from my backyard.
