You've got very nice detail on the individual color planes, but they are slightly distorted with respect to each other. The red and green are slightly elongated vertically, and the blue is slightly compressed. You can see a discontinuity in particular at about the 1-2 o'clock position at the top right edge.

You could try something like Mira or Registar to morph the color channels back to round, but something like MATLAB might be required. It's way too expensive, unfortunatly - not sure if there is a less expensive product that will do what MATLAB can do.

Nice going Wes! Nasa needs to get the Shuttle fixed so they can go up and put a webcam in the Hubble;-)
