Very nice Shane, Loads of info in there to play with.
If you just want to reduce the size of a few of the bigger stars you could try to pinch them a bit.
Change the image to an 8 bit image first (The distort/pinch only works on 8 bit images.
Select the star you want to reduce using the marque select tool with it set to elipse and slightly bigger than the star you wish to reduce.
Select filter/distort/pinch and try it at about 40 -50% and hit OK.
select deslect and if it's what you are happy with move on to the next one.
When finished you can always select image/mode/16bit and return it to a 16 bit image.
I usually leave this until the very last.

Good luck with it. Nice image look forward to seeing what it ends up like.
