Hi Mike

I process my wide field shots in a similar manner to my deep sky shots.

ie in ImagePlus: RAW conversion to prebayer CFA. Calibration with CFA darks, flats and bias. After calibration, the files are Bayer interpolated. I then align and stack, usuallly with translate and rotate. I then use Digital development, as I described in my article.

Other processing is done in Photoshop (Levels/Curves etc).

You do need to be a little careful when stretching, so as not to overblow the stars. But other than that is is pretty much the same.

If you want to post some RAWs, I'll have a go at them, but I won't be able to do anything until Friday this week as I am currently in Melbourne.

Cheers
