This is my first image stacked using PixInsight rather than DSS/Nebulosity – then DBE and LRGB combination (although this version only uses RGB as I hadn’t finished stacking luminence data at point on processing!). I then used Photoshop for curves, levels, a layer mask to bring out the galaxy a bit more, saturation, contrast, Gradient eXterminator and Astroflat Pro plug-ins and and a little bit of Hasta La Vista Green plug-in. The image below has now yet had noise removal or any further sharpening.

very nice image Andy.
Thanks Jim.
I now have to try to add luminence data – not really sure how to do that! Do you know?
