Thanks Luigi, the halos stem from the ED127 being a little off in focussing blue compared to the other colours. I should have done a more careful refocus after the R and G filters, also I used the action to increase star colour for the background stars which also contributed to it. I kinda like it, as it puts greater emphasis on the star cluster but that's just a personal preference. Thanks for your comments they are appreciated.
