I make sure to never use a mask with Life module, problem solved.

The grey halo will be an issue even with Ha filter or any filters...

Hi RICH-DSO,

I appreciate your response!

I tried to use no mask (clear the mask) with the Life Module and the module would not proceed without editing or using a full mask.

During which module do you use a tight star mask?

Thanks,
Jim
