Thanks Ivo,
I did a lot more processing on it using Photoshop & Fitswork 4.
I removed the huge dust doughnut, improved the star colours,
improved the gradients, boosted areas with masks,
did a little bit of sharpening & contrast using vector masks.
I cut & paste the stars from one of the first versions back in
to work on them for colour as they were washed out.
I deleted all the previous versions on flickr.
I ended up with 18 iterations to get this:

I think that is a lot better?

cheers
Allan
