Description: Revision of recent data. I was unhappy with how big and blown out the two main stars are in my first edition (HD211300 and 16 Cep). SO I created a seprate RGB to stretch differently than the main image. Also on my original image, one pass of StarExterminator did not eliminate HD211300, but a second pass did. That helped the final image as well. I felt like I was able to control the star cores better this way. Used Bill Blanshan's screenstars script as well. No star reduction in the revision. Stars came out a bit on the small side, but like it better overall.
