Description

The data for this LRGB image are from the Moana Project (https://erellaz.com/moana/open-datasets/m101/) and consist of 15 hours of RGB and 5 hours of Ha.  The Ha was added to the linear RGB image before color calibration with SPCC using the Crazed Conceptions method (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwuiS8N1A-E).  A ACDNR mask was used to protect the background when adding the Ha.  The super luminance included all data, including Ha.  This was used to create the LRGB.  Processing utilized Pixinsight with minor adjustments using Photoshop.  GraXpert AI was used to remove gradients.
