Description

This was a difficult target to process, I had trouble finding a color pallet I liked, and not even sure this is it (it is am SHO version of ForaxX's approach).  I tried adding back in RGB stars without luck, so settled for letting PCC do some correction, then tweaking them in post a few times.   A light touch of Topaz sharpening was added afterwards.  I imaged this over about a week between Christmas and New years 2021 (in the astrobin metadata I was too lazy to enter each filter for each day so it shows all on 12/31).

I would appreciate criticism and suggestions.
