Thanks for the comments Leon - astro-imaging can difficult, time consuming, expensive, and frustrating... but I agree mostly fun learning as you go.

Hi Gary - some good ideas. I tried repressing and being a bit gentler with curves and levels. Not too sure about tweaking DSS so I gave that a miss. Anyway I am a lot happier with the reprocessed image.

Try tweaking the luminance settings in DSS? before having another go in PS?
cheers
Any comments greatly appreciated.
