Hey Migel, Thanks for the nice comments and critique!
Hard to get the ball passed you
I didn't use any selection tool, but what I did and usually do with these galaxy fields is paint in the more stretched version to only the faint galaxies. And my width on the brush was yes, a little over sized But I thought, what the hey, while there are some spirals, there are also a fair amount of elliptical galaxies..... ok ok, a bit of slackness creeping in...
Still with my monitor its not too apparent.. well, only to the really critical eye... and mine because I knew what I did.
Hey, I'm not over scrutinising really (I do roll my eyes at this habit in some people ), it's just that the faint fuizzies are something that attract me and it was a little obvious to me that they didn't look right, that t'was all

The rest of the image looked great

Mike
