Description

First image processed from a week long trip to the Arizona Sky Village, a narrowband bicolor image of the Lagoon Nebula. Framing could have been better, but data capture spread across 2 nights, with the first one rather wind affected until late. This is made from small stacks of Ha and OIII data, with a synthetic luminance made from a combo of the Ha OIII data added as well. Bulk of processing performed in Pixinsight, finishing tweaks in both Photoshop and Lightroom.
