Description

My astro pal, Jerry Keith, let me use some Ha data he shot recently of NGC1499 the California Nebula. I added it to my color version (Canon 5D 12.8mp) and made a SuperLumHaRGB. Jerry used a 7nm Baader filter on his Hutech modded Canon 6D. I registered the two in Registar, then removed the stars from the registered Ha image with Straton. I made a copy of this and added 12% of each channel of the RGB and saved it as SuperLuminance. I used layer stacking in Photoshop CS6, then applied the luminosity with the SuperLum.
