A big dose of the Gamma setting in K3CCDTools helped control the dynamic range; it was quite educational seeing the effects in real time as I dragged the Gamma slider.

I have never been very successful at post capture image processing. If the image looks reasonable on the computer display, then it usually turns out okay. If the image looks so-so, then no amount of playing around after the capture has ever compensated, or perhaps my skills are not yet honed enough?

The seeing was good for that particular image for 2 or 3 minutes, and then it was all over, so a fair bit of luck was involved too.

Cheers
