Description

I have been playing with Vicente Peris Funcion de normalizacion del contraste local (Local contrast normalization function) in order to bring out the small scale details. I also used Multiscale emphasis. The data comes from a small refractor in Telescope Live and consists of RGB subframes of 600 min each. The data contains quite a chromatic aberration, specially on the corners that were cropped out. I am very happy with the discovery of Vicente Peris technique and the beautiful final result. 
All the processing in PixInsight with the final contrast and vibrance touch in adobe Lightroom.
