Description

3 each 300s RGB

3x 300 Lum

4x 300 Ha

Stacked like frames in DSS, merged different channels in CS6. I tried to bring out more detail and add the Ha and something went really off with my color balance. I think my RGBs are noisy and overexposed, I'll try replacing them with multiple exposures when I can. Any other suggestions on processing HaLRGB with free tools + Photoshop?
