A Starless Butterfly Wing

[silentrunning]

I was working on a process to remove the stars from a previous post and found this intermediate step so attractive that I decided to save it away. I've even left some remnants of star removal in as they add an additional artistic element to it - in my mind. I was aiming for the Hubble pallet but seemed to have achieved something closer to a Turner painting. 🙂

These starless images always look so dramatic.  There's a bit of Jackson Pollack in there as well I think.
