Hi Louie,
this is a lovely, delicate cluster... great objects while the moon's around too.
Your processing is very good and the background is lovely and smooth and very even....
I think your star colours are fine in the first version, just that you could probably use a bit of curve adjustment to bring out the fainter stars that are lurking in the back ground and bring a little more vitality to the actual clusters stars.
I had a mess in PS and the cluster becomes a lot more vibrant... without making the stars overly larger than they are in your first image.

From what I'm seeing, the little 66SD does a fine job matched to the SXH9...

Look forward to more of your work...

All the best
Rich
