About this image

I set myself this challenge, knowing that it would be difficult, so that in the future I can do a "before" and "after" shot when I have a new OTA. In the meantime, although the individual subs look impressive, my post-processing skills were unable to do them justice. This image was perhaps the hardest one that I have done, and I ended up cropping heavily just to get this result.
