During my initial experience processing with PI, I have come across some artifacts that have not presented themselves during my utilization of other processing software programs. I recently started using PI after a year of using Startools. In the link below are: my stacked and callibrated image of M42, along with a processed image from PI. After performing DBE, I am seeing bright red and blue dots all over the image that I have never seen before and were not apparent on any subs or stacked image.
Prior to DEB, I am cropping and doing background neutralization along with color calibration.
My only experience with processing has been with Startools, so I processed using the same data and do not see these red and blue artifacts on the image. Is there something I may be doing incorrectly? I have been following the instructional videos from Harrysastroshed and have been very pleased with what PI offers and the results. I am sure there is a reason these are showing up, but after speaking with a couple folks in my astronomy club that use PI, we have not been able to pinpoint the source.

Any insight? I appreciate any feedback and am very excited to fully incorporate PI...what a powerful tool!
Thanks
