Might try without the CLS filter under darker skies. Lots of fine colour adjusting I can still do in StarTools keeping the histogram in mind and playing with sliders. More a case of familiarity with what looks good and in what contexts (i.e. experience and more browsing on Astrobin!). The orange/purple Eta at full resolution works a treat as a screen backdrop but still doesn't quite compare with the constraint in the image I took with an 8" Newt, which I have yet to put through StarTools... hmmm next experiment...
