Description

The Shark Nebula is a quite demanding object to image. Here is a 2x1 mosaic totaling 19 hours of exposure. The image was fairly difficult to process because of multiple colors gradients across the field. Pxinsight allowed for a nice correction. I tried to avoid overprocessing with oversaturation or overdesaturation of the dust clouds. After several attempts transforming the object in some used make-up wadding pad, I am kind of happy with this one !
As alway, any hint is most welcome !
