Description

This nebula definitely needs more integration time.  Already cropped close, so  enjoy at a distance. 
Used a different method here. While I removed the stars I did not edit them and place them back in.
Instead I went back to the original fit file and stretched it enough to have the stars displaying but only a faint outline of the horse head.  This produced the smaller unbloated stars I was aiming for without having to use a procedure to reduce their size.  Still there is alot of noise in this image that only longer integration time can cure.  And some artifacts from removing the stars initially.
Maybe 4 to 6 hours next time.
