It's a terrific image Doug but I agree with Mike, the levels just need a little adjustment.

I've had a go, if you don't mind, at getting some more detail out and adjusting the histogram to balance it a little.
It's a bit hard working from the web version but just wanted to show you what I did, the core is slightly blown though but the dust lanes came out.

Just use the saturation sliders to bring back the colour balance, did a slight noise reduction and final sharpen.

Anyway hope you like it, there's good data there.
