Title: Revised

Description: A reprocess to reduce the big halo around Navi, and generally to knock down the stars a bit. In this reprocess I used the H-alpha channel for luminance instead of the luminance data I shot, because the H-alpha had much less of a halo and a generally-softer star background.
