Rolf and Mike,
I do believe that you are entirely correct, and that there is some new information in your utterly brilliant image;
Compare it, for instance, with the famous image of the low-contrast structures which was made by
Peng, Ford, Freeman and White ( 2002, AJ, 124, 3144) using adaptive histogram equalization, or the 'canonical' ultra-deep UKS image by David Malin.
There is more in your image than in any of these!!
Accordingly, I sent an email notifying about your new combined image to a few researchers who have done very recent research about the structure and evolution of Cen A :
Dr Kenneth Freeman (ANU)
Kristin Woodley
Doug Geisler
George Jacoby
Baerbel Koribalski
Gretchen Harris
Dr Duncan Forbes (Swinburne University)
Best regards,
Robert Lang
