Rick: Thanks for the advise on noise reduction, I used the same settings as I used to do without dithering. Now that I am dithering I will try to remember to decrease the amount of noise reduction now.

Mike: Yes this is only my second image with dithering, makes a difference that's for sure.

M&T: Regarding the yellow stars I did use the "cap green to yellow" switch (Startools) which may have increased the yellow in those stars.

The black clipping is caused by using the Isolate parameter in Startools, where you lassoo a mask around the galaxy and Startools pushes the background back making the galaxy stand out.

Thanks all, for the gentle advise, I'm still learning.
Cheers
Bill
