Thanks.

It was a pleasure to process! The raw files have very little noise to battle against! It's 22 hours of data taken at 5 minute exposures in two merged panels.

Is that a small lady in the head of a big lady? (I saw the BIG lady in your first image —the vertical dark part being her upstretched arm holding the torch.)

Hello Rudi

Not sure about the big lady, but yes, that's the small lady!

Hi Graeme,

Excuse my artwork, but I initially saw something like this.
The big lady. :grin:

Ah, yes, I can see that now! With photo editing skills like that, you should check out the link in the OP Rudi!
