I just had a 2 minute play with your image and i think you should try this:
duplicate your image in PS
filter/blur/gaussian blur the copy (max blur)
Personally i usually give that blur a slight filter/noise add noise at 1.3 pixels (this is optional.
The click on the original image,
select Image from menu/apply image
ensure that the top drop down box has the copy (blurred) selected in the drop down
then select "subtract" from the blending menu,
adjust the offset (try offset 13 on this image)
light pollution noise should be gone, leaving a nice inky sky and a stand out Pleiades.
you got it there and it looks very good
cheers

Firstly Scott, this is an amazing image considering it was taken from light polutted Newcastle, excellent!
Frank an excellent technique, I tried it, works well with a bit of fiddling with the settings
