It appears that you've learned some new tricks over the past 5 months. That's a definite improvement. What did you do? Change image processing software?

Thanks. Basically what I realised was that I had to treat the image as three parts. The witch head nebula, the background and the stars. I did them in three different layers in PS and used a layer mask to blend the Nebula with the background. The stars in a separate layer with color blending.

Forgott to give Hunter the credit for giving me the tip to use a "hide all" layer mask and "paint" the Witch head visible. Thanks again Hunter!

Looks very good, Matts! I don't know how you got so much detail on the first version, and this one, well.... you have really done it! So far, this is your defining image.
