A galaxy in leo- NGC 3521

For a fun bit of perspective- here's what it looks like before processing:

In EL5 how in the world does the original picture get processed into the final picture? Is the final picture actually what it looks like if I was close enough? How do you bring out such detail from such a dark picture? Genuinely curious. Looks great btw.
