I like the image; by keeping a shallow DOF you have focus attention on the subject and eliminated distracting elements from the composition. However, the bits of horizontal banding, particularly about 1/5th of the way down from the top of the image, is kind of distracting. But still a good image.

I like this and I'm interested to see how it fares. Love the dof, you caught a great expression, and I think the noise gives it a good look. Good luck.

Then I'm taking this as a compliment because I took the shot of Millennium Falcon down in my basement and the background stars at a campsite at the Waterton/Glacier National Park ;-)

Thanks!

If you still have doubts, check the 3D version. Star Wars was not taken in 3D, so there is no way you can find the 3D shot anywhere else... Other than another geek's website I guess.

well it seems to me that its a cut clip from starwars to me

Thanks...

I did not drop the camera but I got so much dust in the camera while changing the lens up there... It took a full day of work to clean it out ;-)

Wow, I was not aware that so many people on dpc have a serious allergy to selective saturation. Well, it is good to know :-)))

Nice catch about the halo-ing around the wings issue. I must admit, I was lazy about the selection. The color on the background was cyan-blue dominated, I did not bother doing any selection. Well the halo is because of that ;-)

As for the blown highlights, I agree. Again because of laziness... I edited this version for printing and did not bother to edit it again for screen.

Well, thanks for the comments, I appreciate them...
