Stacked and initial stretch in AstroPixel Processor. Light pollution Gradient, Background and Star Colour Calibration also done in AstroPixel Processor. Additional processing and star reduction done in Photoshop.

Description: Adjusted the colours to bring back some of the natural blue colour, and to supress the green cast the previous version had.
also adjusted the order that I performed a few of the noise/colour blotch and star reduction techniques.
