If anyone is keen to try to give the data a process, feel free. Here is the original pixinsight stack from WBPP



Hi Lachlan,
I can assure you that my idea works -

I just tried it again now on your picture.
The border between the nebula will of course change slightly as
I gave you directions for a global adjustment.
In Photoshop you can select just the area you want to work on instead.
That could require working on 3 or 4 areas separately and may
require blurred or feathered layer masks to not look obvious.



You asked -

"wondering how I can fix it in post-processing"
I can't think of a better way.
In Photoshop - you are the artist - you can paint whatever you like


cheers
Allan
