NGC2070 PI Reprocess

Have spent a pleasant day playing with some old data using PixInsight.
Am suitably impressed with the software. This is my first real attempt to process with PI.

Looking for some constructive feedback on this though.

Details
Basically its NGC2070, the Tarantula Nebula imaged with a Canon 60da and GSO RC8, first lights from when I purchased the scope last year

My own feeling is that its over-smooth so will need to look at how to work with that and I suspect the stars might need to be looked at.Shorter subs for the core would have helped as well.

I would very much appreciate any other feedback or hints on processing.

Basic workflow
Dynamic Crop
DBE
Channel Extraction to create Luminence


Background Neutralisation
Colour Callibration
Atrouswavelet transformation
Multiscale Medium Transform
HST
Repeat for Luminence

LocalHistogramEqualisation (Lum)

Combine L and RGB
Tweak with Curves transformation

Thanks for looking
