Dave,
I gave your reduced jpg a _very_ quick run of the Digital Development option in the demo of Imageplus.
Does this bring out the dark lanes any better?

Note that this was done very quickly on a reduced size jpg, and then a print screen was done cause the demo doesn't allow one to save.

Wops! Actually, I made a slight error! I used Larry's image instead of yours! Sorry!
I'll give yours a go tomorrow during lunch at work.

I was thinking that, the orientation looked all wrong and I'm pretty sure that there was no way I captured that much detail !!
Still, Larrys modified shot still looks great...
I think I'd prefer to stick with my orig image compared with the mod image, too much noise on the right hand side.

Way too much noise, I agree
