the nebulosity around the bright stars is showing up well, the dust itself is much harder to bring up as its virtually black itself and so to separate it from the background cleanly needs super smooth data.
i am currently working on exactly the same area, i have done 10 x 20 min exposures, i have given it a process to see how its coming up, i reckon i will have to double it to get it smooth in the dusty stuff, its not easy !
my opinion on the processing is nothing beats being able to sit down with someone at the computer and throw ideas at each other while processing an image, eveybody sees things differently and has valuable ideas, .... see if you can take your data and hook up with someone in your area. have a coffee and enjoy the experience.
clive.
