Description

This image is a combination of OSC + UV/IR Cut filter and OSC + L'Extreme filter.  I like the effect achieved by this blending. I removed the stars using StarXterminator to process nebulosity detail. I reintroduced some of the larger stars using a mask in Photoshop. I added star spikes to some of them using Star Spikes Pro.
