I got this in a rushed setup last night and fighting clouds, so the image is technically a bit rough and won't stand enlargement, but looks pretty enough at this scale.

I did two adjustments in Pixinsight (trial) which made a noticeable difference to the image:
1. Dynamic Background Extraction got rid of a muddy background and;
2. HDR Transform fixed the overexposed central parts of the image.

It looks you did a pretty good job of polishing it with PI Tony.
Nice one.
Cheers,

Thanks Alex and Tony.
Pixinsight has some nice features but I won't be in a hurry to buy it at $380, especially since I'm not a serious imager.
