Thanks Mike. Tbe only noise reduction was done on the very outer dim spiral, nothing on the main body of the galaxy. Its relatively short exposure despite taking several days of it (most was thrown out). More exposure as usual would improve things. I have some other data from earlier times I might try to add to it if the data is good enough.
