You're a fast learner Freddy.
Every object/dataset combo has its own unique challenges - even the really clean stuff.
And then there's literally an infinite amount of different ways to process that same dataset too.
AP image processing is awesome. There's always something new to learn or figure out (even for me).

Thanks Ivo,

See picture, alot better then my first attempt...

Core still a bit too bright, background can use some tweaking but overall a sparkling globular...imho

this is only a jpg....the png looks better and more colorfull...of course
