Cheers Jase, I basically agree with your assesment but when I did the background desaturation tweek it just didn't look right
, as I said I kind of run around the edge of perfection really, I have a hang up with losing faint galaxies + my eyes tell me things
..I was processing this at 2am+ this morning = darkened room bright screen etc ...actually it is remarkable that it isn't a piece of crap really
. I am at work at the moment and it looks fine on this screen in a fluro lit room, background blotches need very close scrutiny to make out and a casual glance misses them all together... but I'll have a play with the background at some stage
