Of the papers and finishes available from SmugMug's print options, what works best for astrophotos? Looking mainly for the blackest blacks, and the best reproduction of subtle colors against a dark field.

    I guess the next question would be how would leaving the color correction turned on be? Local processors always seem to lighten the prints if I forget to tell them not to. Of course, it's a tough subject to postprocess anyway, since it's so color and brightness sensitive.

    Light pollution doesn't help either: (Yes, I know I need a LPS filter for this area, just haven't bought one yet.)
