These are genuine questions,
.
Not a problem, i give you the original (a crop) Stacked in DSS using K Sigma and Med both darks and Flats, Also the one posted -more or less as i recropped from TIF file, a quik curve lift and unsharp mask 2 pxels 1 level and 100% . Just like coffee add sugar to taste, the final unsharp version is at 100% so degradation apart from being 8 bit is minimal, have a play if you like.

your comments are taken in the genuine nature that they were given in, should you have a specifc suggestion to improve it or a technique you might use i would only be too glad to hear.
