I had a shot at Anthony Wesley's historic discovery on the night of August 7:

Amazing detail considering the elevation. Great processing as usual.

Fabulous image! There is hope for folks in
the northern hemisphere....

Alan, gorgeous shot! I went back and tried your Red layer Lum overlay method and it really helps bring out the details with reduced noise. Thanks for the tip and for the post!

Alan, I played with your image a little. I hope it's ok
