Crop or Wide Field? Does it look too crisp or over saturated?

 

[Ken Rennie]

Crop for me. Ken

I like the close in shot with the crop.

 

[Andy Elliott]

I like both, but at a push, the un-cropped version.

 

[Jameel Hyder]

The uncropped version for me with the gradation of clouds spreading wide.

 

[Mike Lewis]

A slight nod to the uncropped version, with the extra stuff going on in the frame and still large enough to show of the exquisite detail you captured.

I think the sharpness and saturation both look very good - no need to tweak anything there to my eye.

Thanks all. trying to decide what to post on astrobin? Few are shown in a widerfield.

The wider image is interesting, but only in the sense that it has some nice background nebulosity. I think the crop is the best as it's not too tight, and still lets some of the cool background show around the helmet.

But for Astrobin, I would be tempted to post the wider version because you don't see many like that.
