Compares well to my memories of the old Mt Palomar shots which first captured my imagination back when I was a teenager.

Thanks Pete! Glad to hear I'm heading in the right direction
It's always hard to know what objects should really look like.

If you find that some of the larger stars are not include in the generated mask you can use Range selection to select the larger stars, add some softness to the selected regions with its "softness" slider. Then use Pixel Math to add the Range mask and Star mask together to create your final star mask.
Works for me.  |
Great stuff Rod - thanks for that, I'll give it a go
the stars are noticeably tighter in the raw files than the tickled result.
