Phantastic shot Eddie, as far as I can see from the puny posted format!
Except for hitting your head against the counterweight bar while doing an exposure I find image processing always the worst pain in the bud.
The first bit (dark flat bias aligning stacking etc.) is not that bad (unless you find another method like I regularly do), but then I get stranded in a plethora of processing algorithms with 50.000 parameters. Not to mention the last fiddling with the curves.
And that constant urge to reprocess images because you've find a better way of shifting bits.
If I wouldn't be into astrophotography I would have raised 4 kids by now.

(Always wanted to use that one!)
Just post the link of the big version when you have found your saturation

, I won't take 5 hours to look at it, but it will still be for quite some time.
Cheers,
