Hi Alex, thank you for your feedback. I use Nebulosity IV for pre processing & stacking, in the alignment stage there is an option to choose "translation+rotation+scale",
next step is to choose your alignment stars & save each frame & then stack the aligned & scaled frames.
This may be possible with other stacking software, someone here may know. Hope this helps. Cheers,
Tony

Ryan, I'm so glad you liked the result. It seems as though we have similar expectations with processing. This was the 5th iteration to get the dust lanes to fit your description.
I ended up using "enhance DSO & reduce stars" in Carboni's action set (the best $25 I've spent on software) to achieve the result.
1 layer of soft light & luminosity @ 90% were added after noise reduction to enhance colour. Cheers,
Tony
