Description

Color matters! Just played with the color mapping of the three narrow band channels. The "green" one is a classical HST palette. You may guess what I changed in the second pic. By the way: My first light with my G2-8300m camera with filterwheel.

I added a version with more contrast, higher saturation and the application of a weak HLVG and turned the pic 90° to satisfy people, who like the commonly used orientation of M42.
