Nice one Ron. The way to get the core is to take a few subs at shortey exposures, process these so you get the detail, then composite this area onto your main nebula image. This can be done several times at different exposures so you get a nice smooth core transition. Ive done it a couple of times on 42 it also works with m31 core

There is a lot of detail in there Ron and some nice colour too. I am sure you will get to grips with it in no time. :)

Nice one Ron, as said some 10 second exposures for the core and blend em in, lots of tutes on the net for doing it.
