Thanks guys! Going back to old data is always fun
I think for my original I wanted to bring out the dust in the background, and in doing so I went overboard with the stretching. I didn't realise how noisy it was until a second look some time later.

Nice job allround though George

Thanks Mike! Thats an interesting idea that I didn't think of! I think the colour from the original was also contributed by 10hrs of OIII data that I didn't include in this copy. I will have a go and blending that in and see what I get. The OIII was taken at lower resolution on an ED80, hence was left out this time. But we'll see how it goes.
Cheers, and thanks again
