Not too sure about the enlarged stars Marcus. This may work if you stopped the white clipping with specific curve before enlargement. Look like you being to look some colours associated with them as well. None the less, interesting way of processing a cluster. Wouldn't have thought to enlarge the stars only because if there is something else in the frame, things may not be proportioned as such. I guess with a cluster only frame it doesn't make much difference.

It took me just on Two hours of frigging around to get them from Mono to colour and I almost gave up, until I tried using PS Actions.
I found that I could convert them one at a time by using 'Fake H-Alpha' for the Red, 'Fake OIII' for the green, and I forget the one I used for Blue.
Then I tried to layer them. I've never been able to work out how to do layers, and I still couldn't. I spent Four and a half hours working thru the tutorial and trying it as I read!!!! It still didn't work properly 
In other words, I wasted a total of 8.5 hours to get my mess 
This is the Main reason I don't want a Monochrome camera.
Colour will do me fine  |
At least you gave it a go Ken. We learn by doing
