The ideal processing of faint ethereal gaseous matter...any advice on how to emulate your processing technique would be appreciated.

Thanks Douglas thats really very kind of you. I think there were 3 things that contributed most to this final result - first BlurXterminator, second Blanshans SHO normalisation, I'm new to that (and have failed with SHO until now) and watched his you-tube tutorial and then tried lots of different tweaks to get it right, and lastly, judicious use of MLT for sharpening and LHE (2 passes) for improving contrast. I hope that helps.
