I am getting close to what you posted on your first post but your second shot blows me out of the water.
Very nicely done.

Nice result! Starting to pick up the hydrogen alpha jets out of the core and good detail in the arms...

Thanks guys...I was playing around with PI's Deconvolution, and although I shouldnt have done it at the end/finished image, I wanted to see what it would do. This was thr above image run thru Decon only.

Regularized Richardson-Lucy or other (Decon)? A nice result regardless of algorithm!

Lucy it was, have to try it out at the beginning. I’m sure it’ll make a big difference.

Yes, I watched a YouTube video and decided to try it out. You should do the process at the beginning, I just wanted to see what it would do and used my finished pix to try it. I'm certain it'll be much better when its done at the beginning. I'm working on M51 now, so hopefully will get to try it out tonight or tomorrow night.
