Description

This is 2 years in the making. I combined the Luminance from a Oct 2013 image with the HaRGB from Oct 2015. I think it works nicely. I'm not sure why some of the stars turned out more towards the purple side but I don't mind. All star colors were brought up evenly and no hue adjustments were done. When adjusting colors other then the stars the stars were always masked.

The shot is from a pair of Sony Nex-5's and a pair of Minolta 45mm pancake lenses at F4.5 . Both were taken from my very light polluted front yard.

All processing done in PixInsight.
