Thanks Alex! :-)

Good thinking, I should probably revisit that.

I very, very briefly tried to reduce the star sizes in the red channel, since most of the halos are actually magenta. I didn't try very hard and ended up with cyan borders instead, then I went on to try doing a contour mask and then reducing the saturation... which I also didn't spend much effort on before giving up, exporting it and trying to reduce the magenta in PS.

I think the issue is that the green data is the sharpest, blue the worst and red in the middle. I could also try bloating the green channel a touch as well I guess.
