Thanks Trevor,
This was posted earlier and I was arranging the gallery and apparently this came up as a new post...anyway. That little white patch showed up when I added an additional 2 hours to this. As far as processing just the usual, stretch the channels, set the black and white points and play with saturation a little.

Well done Steve...processing-wise...how did you do the color...any balancing or messing? I ask because of in your upper left corner...the two stars surrounded by white....mine always come out red...and that never comes out white for me without some playing...bitch is it is upposed to look like yours not mine...so what are you doing? Nice grab.
