Very nice, you have great detail, colour and low noise in the planetay it's self! The stars show some processing artifact I think, having a non-smooth gradient, but that is the only thing I can see to perhaps be able to improve upon.

Thanks for your coments, very gratful for all help, not very good at prosesing.

No problem. Usually when I end up with stars like that it's because of the combination of levels and curves adjustments that have clipped some of the spectrum. Interchanging curves and levels adjustments repeatedly "in a bad way" will often do it. I have good practical drowned of how to avoid it, but do not know the technicalities to know what is right and to be safe explaining any more I think.
