Steve: Looks better to me Greg as you say the stars are more natural and better detail in galaxy. The brightest star in bottom right of first pic was very pinkish looking and a tad bloated. 1365 is one of my favourites.

Thanks Bluescope. The stars did look funny. I think what happened is some processing actions I have affect the whole image even when you have lassoed it only to one area. So I was affecting the stars adversely even though I thought I had excluded them.

Really Nice Greg.

Thanks I like the 2nd better as well.

Most look like ellipticals.

There are several there.
