Fantastic Bernard! Is this the pro dataset? You've done a fantastic job of removing the artefacts. I love the colour and smoothness of the image - but those star forming regions and young star regions really pop!
Yes. This is the Pro Dataset. I think doing a contrast adjustment in the a and b channels in Lab Color mode really helped the color.
