Not bad Paul, I like the wafty look you have finished with, reminds me of rasberry gelato  . This object has so many faces depending on what filtered light you gather and how you process it, which is great really. Some nice colouring especially in the stars going on there too. It would be worth working some more on the dark rings around the stars as this would improve the over all impression.
Nice job

You like that? I thought it would attract a few more views, rather than calling it by its common name.
You're right about the different views. I did at least 6 or 7 reprocesses and each time I found another part of the data that I brought out. In the end I did a combine and layer of all the stuff I like.
With regard to the rings are you using selection of the stars and then doing a layer mask and lightening the halo? I have seen some thing like that on Adam Blocks tutorials which controls star size. Perhaps that might work for this problem too?
