Description

After a long while i finally had the time and patience to get my hands dirty on some of my unprocessed data.
For this one i started with the typical narrowband combinations like SHO and HOO, but was not satisfied. I then remembered an article about Dynamic narrowband combinations with PixelMath from @thecoldestnights.
After fiddling around with some PixelMath expressions, the creation of dynamic factor images and about 30 versions later i eventually came up with an image, that i kinda like. I'm pretty sure, that my PixelMath expressions are no longer in the spirit of the intended dynamic narrowband combination method (sorry for that), but i really like the colors of the final result .
