A bit over-processed to show detail :)

Amazing Duncan, as you say a bit overprocessed, but excellent nevertheless.

Only very slightly. It does show a lot more detail. Would be interesting to see what an animation of that would look like.

Fantastic capture again.

It has ALL the animation data, so there are no more frames!

Ah. I understand now. I need some help figuring out WinJupos! :)

Definitely getting better ;)

I agree that you're pushing the processing a bit but there is a fair amount of detail to pull out so I think that's justified - a superb result !
