Rob, I did very little sharpening in this image. Some selective here and there but nothing extensive or too harsh. The use of tight FWHM data really helps to ensure you don't need to sharpen much.

In truth I would love to collect data in Lum of around 12 hours just to give the image a more dusty and smokey look. I still have plenty of time to do that but have another project that needs data urgently, so it may not get collected this year.

Yes that very part of the image I really am drawn to also. I really like the reflection nebulosity there which appears to be in front of some dust and gas. Very interesting spot.
