Hi Entropy,

Considering how much exposure you have under dark skies, I think there's likely a lot of data left on the table. The stars are nice and round and the colour in the nebula looks spot on.

Unfortunately is also clearly "black clipped" - the sky is never truly black but has noise in it. It's also been over-smoothed and as a result you've lost colour in your stars and made the background look blotchy and hazy.

I think if you give it a bit of the "less is more" style of treatment you'll have a really wonderful image.

Hope this helps,
Cam
