Now comes the finishing touch, color balancing this puppy!
Hide the background layer by clicking on its eye icon in the layers window, then select the top layer (small line), make a new layer name this layer star, hit ctrl+Alt+Shift+E , this will merge all visible layers in the newly created layer "Star".
