Description

This is data that I captured recently with my Zenithstar II 80 ED and have completely reprocessed in Startools v1.7. Using luminance, and red channels, and Ha and OIII ( from my narrowband L-eNhance filter) mapped to green and blue, I have produced this HOO image.

Standard workflow with dual band colour processing, then saturation of the nebula with dimming and tightening of the stars. Vignetting was repaired and some adjustment to stars to reduce colour abberation. Interesting, but not nearly as nice as my previous LRGB image.
