Cheers Mike, it's always tricky to get the balance right with SHO, so I'm glad I'm on the right track

Thanks John, yeah I was a bit surprised with how much detail was lurking in there!

Thanks Rick, I'll definitely be looking into this

I've just started using the Masked Stretch tool to soften my bloated stars, does a great job I think. The "Morphological Transformation" tool will also reduce star sizes. Masked Stretch Tutorial

Also try the "Dark structure enhance" script with a mild setting. It can really make the dark dusty bits pop. Its in "Script - Utilities" from memory (I'm at work ATM)

Cheers Rod, I'll check that out.
