It works just fine, and what a great first image you have. Love the dark dustiness and the detail in the center!

Very pretty Tom. Lovely Blue and lots of dust.

If you want to have some fun you can use Starnet++ to create a starless version, boost the starless version (I used ExponentialTransformation) then recombine the two images using PixelMath with the max() function. It really brings out the dusty regions.

Not saying it is better, just fun.

Thanks for sharing.
