Thanks Greg,

I did use PC deconvolution. I also tried Max entropy. They did make a small difference, but becuase I am undersampled in data deconvolution realy only impacts larger stars and does strange things to shape of smaller ones. I ended up blending a combination of Max Entropy and Positive contraint deconvolution images in Photoshop. I also tried up sizing the Lum frame x 2 then running deconvoilution. this works well as well but when you then shrink again you get some artifacts from that so just left well enough alone.

I did have much more star color but ended up dialing it back a bit as I felt it distracted from the Galaxy and looked less processed that way.

Stars though look a tad large. Perhaps a bit of deconvolution on the luminance - 40 iterations positive constraint would tighten them up a tad plus a little bit more colour in them. The galaxy colours look perfect.

Yes Adams tutorials are very good but he is a bit slow to get to the point sometimes. Some of the longer tutorials could be done in half the time. Tony Hallas DVDs are much better in that regard and they cover much the same stuff although Adam covers more overall.
