I did a little reworking of my old Horsehead Nebula according to the links
Jim H posted and was able to come up with something a little better.
I worked the Levels and Curves slowly 3 times as suggested.
Thank you to Jim H for the post.
Original shot was 180 sec, ISO 400, f/10, 2000mm Meade 8" SCT scope, D800E Camera.
