This is one of my personal favorites. Looking for CC on how this image could be improved.

Link to image on astrobin with details.

It's beautiful but the presentation is a little on the dark side, I would love to see a version rendered just a tad brighter without that pitch black sky background. These are small moves though, I really like it.

Thanks much for the input. I like the dark presentation, but apparently Im in the minority.

I will try for  a lighter version.
