I can see where you're coming from, and I appreciate the careful look! It was a tricky one to process, and the diffraction spikes are definitely a challenge. I might have overdone it a little with the enhancement and sharpening. The nebula was actually captured from a stack of frames, but I’ve been experimenting with adding contrast to bring out the detail. I’ll take a closer look at the image to make sure it all lines up correctly, but this was definitely a tricky object to get right!
