Yeh it's got a bit of a green cast and some unevenness due to your flats issue but this is still a great and deep looking galaxy field shot

Sometimes you have to sacrifice detail to improve the whole image, I would say that I've succcessfully removed the green tinge and improved the background evenness

My point was, I spent about 2 minutes on a 188k JPEG file not the original data, aesthetically with a little more work the final image could be improved. Attached is the same image with only the green tinge removed and some work on the background

A lot of people post with a green tinge overly prominent in their images and little work done on the background, these detract from the quality of the final image IMO.

Others may disagree

Cheers
