Description

One of my favorite targets. I shot this last year with my DSLR and it was IMO one of my best images. Then I got the ASI1600 and shot some Ha and blended it with the DSLR data. That became one of my proudest images, now I finally got the OIII and SII to make a SHO. I have struggled getting my SHO colors the way I wanted them. This is pretty close. I used the SHO-AIP script to get the colors and then tweaked the colors a bit in PS after I was finished with everything else.

The stars are a bit bigger than I'd like but I did a super lum by combining all three channels. This made the stars quite a bit bigger. I might have to redo this with Ha only stars.

Description: The oversaturated look is cool, but I think it's too much. This is a bit more mellow.
