Title NGC 5139 Omega Centauri Re Processed

Description Sometimes you see certain elements of your original posted image that doesn't look quite right or needs some subtle changes or minor attention. Therefore I reprocessed the image in Startools V1.8 with the following actions - Wipe Module - increase gradient reduction to provide a more uniform field ( the upper left side of the original image had some residual gradients or bias ) AutoDev Module - Increased the autostretch only slightly and used ignore fine detail at 2 pixels HDR Module - Tame preset , increased Tame to 1.17 which provided more even contrast and brightness across the huge core region Color Module - Increased overall saturation slightly and backed off on Highlight Repair of Stars Increased Blue Bias slightly and reduced Green Bias Shrink Module - Reduced Color Taming to only 4 pixels ( original was set at 8 pixels ) De Noise Module - increased noise reduction to 5 pixels I think the above changes have improved the overall image ( if only marginal ) Thanks for Looking Comments Welcome Clear Skies Martin
