    I know very little about photoshopping, but a number of the photos go into a bit of detail about how the pics are composed.

    Go to his website for more. http://miketaylorphoto.smugmug.com/

    It is next to impossible to see the detail shown in astrophotography. I had an 8" Celestar and nebulae, star clusters, etc, looked pretty plain. OTOH, Jupiter and its moons were particularly fun to observe as they were always changing. Saturn, OTOH, changes little except over time.
