Very impressive Steven. I like how one can usually improve image processing continually and gain new insight into old data. Interesting discussion too for sure. It is true that we as amateurs have an advantage in that we can expose a patch of sky for as long as we want really.
Nice of them to comment on your work like that. I too have found Olivier and Lars to be very approachable and helpful in the past.
Incidentally Lars was my supervisor on an astronomy project back when I studied at Copenhagen Uni in the 90's. We used a Meade LX200 to take images of the double cluster in Perseus from the rooftop of the old Copenhagen Observatory and calculate the age of the clusters. I remember there was no easy image processing back then and all image calibration was done with an excessive number of complicated Unix commands...
