One thing, the star field is actually quite dense around M22, have you tried stretching your data a little bit more...?

Thanks Mike
After an initial AutoDev Stretch the glob was swamped by the dense Star field , you could hardly see it , so I used a ROI to maintain dynamic range around the glob and dampen or back off the Star field.Then used the Superstructure module to enhance the glob a tad and finally Spacially Variant PSF Decon
I agree, not an astronomically visually correct representation of M22 but being an astro image you want to highlight the central cluster area , otherwise the image is too washed out or whited out with stars ( a bit a creative licence on this one or is it called “processing” )
