Seems to look a bit worse on here than on my monitor. I am still getting a motling effect on the background of the image. I suppose due to the fact I am using a uncooled astro camera (DSLR). I do dither , maybe not enough. During processing I did make a bit of a cock up in that I missed creating a mask part way through to mask the nebula to then adjust the background. I will re-process this again.

Ultimately a cooled astro camera will be on its way shortly :)
